Stephenson: The Hands-on Guide to Surgical Training

This book will provide a practical hands-on guide for surgical trainees, and also those aspiring to a career in surgery. It will begin with practical advice for medical students and Foundation doctors trying to get into surgery as a career and will then principally cover all aspects of surgical training. There will be clinical sections covering a range of subjects from: what to do if you see a patient in A & E with a ruptured aneurysm, what to look for in a surgical wound to see if it’s healing, how to do an appendicectomy to how to dictate a clinic letter.

There will also be non-clinical sections covering career progression, the clandestine workings of the behind-the-scenes surgical world and getting the most out of your training. There will be a comprehensive section on recruitment into surgery with advice on interviews and enhancing your career prospects. It will aim to cater not only for a range of seniorities of trainee but also to some extent, the different subspecialties.

The book will be accompanied by a wide-range of illustrations, flowcharts and photographs to aid understanding.

Stephenson: How to Operate: for MRCS candidates & other surgical trainees includes 3 DVDs

A unique blend of integrated video and book content, How to Operate provides a comprehensive, multimedia training resource for medical students, junior doctors, MRCS candidates and surgeons in training.

The three DVDs present over 40 of the most common general, urological, ENT and orthopaedic surgical procedures, complete with step-by-step commentary from experienced surgical consultants. At key points during each procedure, the frame freezes so that anatomical structures and pathology are ‘drawn’ onto the frame for clarity and to reinforce learning.

The 10 hours of video is supported by an accompanying book containing an introduction to each procedure, a thorough explanation of the operation mirroring the video with relevant video stills, and bullet point summaries which can be used as OSCE-style checklists.

With a foreword by John Black, President of the Royal College of Surgeons, How to Operate is a truly comprehensive learning resource for all budding surgeons. All you need to become a surgeon is here – scalpel not included!

Book Review
“How to Operate offers a unique and useful addition to the bookshelves (and DVD players) of those progressing through basic surgical training. Combining three DVDs with a 268-page colour text book, the package provides a new take on operative training. Detailed step-by-step videos of common operations are each accompanied by a chapter in the text-book detailing the procedural steps, coupled with operative pictures, radiographs and anatomical diagrams to illustrate the important learning points.
The DVD videos provide a clearly narrated guide to operative practice, pitched for the junior trainee starting out in the operating theatre. The narration tackles the realities of operations and their difficulties with useful tips and a common sense, occasionally humorous approach not found in more senior and specialist titles that often seem to present a more polished version of reality than one encounters in your own operating theatre.
The procedures videoed cover the breadth of a typical core surgical training rotation, including general, vascular, urological, orthopaedic, upper gastrointestinal, ENT, breast, and colorectal procedures. For example, within upper gastrointestinal surgery the videos feature gastrectomy, splenectomy, gastrojejunostomy, open cholecystectomy, and thoracotomy. A practical appendix on the DVD includes a run through of surgical instruments and sutures, and common parts of the theatre process including the WHO surgical checklist, consenting, and writing operation notes. In total this amounts to over 40 videos totalling 10 hours.
In the modern era of multimedia it is perhaps surprising that no-one has already put such a training package together. Many have used Acland’s anatomy DVDs for MRCS revision, and although sub-specialist operative training DVDs do exist these are limited in scope and are prohibitively expensive.
It must surely have been a labour of love to assemble and edit these training videos all together, and the author and production team are to be congratulated on bringing this to life as well as they have. In the modern multimedia age this could well become as essential as Kirk’s seminal text on basic surgical techniques was to previous generations climbing the slippery surgical ladder.
Given the broad coverage of disparate specialties, from orthopaedics to urology, the package will perhaps have limited interest to more senior trainees and one wonders whether dedicated editions featuring each of the nine surgical specialties will be forthcoming in future. Certainly there would be demand for this. Similarly, the level of the accompanying textbook is no replacement for operative surgery bibles such as Farquharson's or Kirk’s, but neither does it set out to be.
Overall, this is a long-overdue adjunct to surgical teaching and one that many surgical trainees at the core/senior house office/resident level will find greatly beneficial to their training."

Devitt: Clinical Problems in Medicine & Surgery

Clinical Problems in Medicine and Surgery is a departure from traditional medical textbooks in that it deals with the real problems of clinical medicine through scenarios encountered in the emergency department, on the wards and in outpatient clinics. First published in 1992, the book has found great popularity with medical students, residents and interns about to experience, or already experiencing, the real world of medical practice.

The book comprises 55 real-life medical scenarios to illustrate important everyday principles in clinical medicine. For this new Third Edition the successful format of case presentation, interspersed with questions and answers, and a final synopsis of key material, has been retained, while new cases have been added and the many useful web-links updated. With the assistance of expert colleagues across three continents, each problem has been revised and updated. New images have been added which reflect the extensive changes in the field of minimally invasive diagnostics. Searching questions will guide the reader towards further self-directed learning.

This book does not purport to be an exhaustive text on clinical medicine. Nor is it a replacement for real-life clinical experience and the hands-on teaching of expert clinicians. It is designed rather as a wide-ranging source of information and a practical aid to the management of clinical problems. The authors hope it will instil in the reader a real sense of excitement and curiosity towards further learning.


Key Features 
  • A highly praised book that tackles important medical and surgical topics from a problem-oriented angle.
  • Adopts a case scenario approach which will encourage critical thinking and develop problem-solving skills.
  • The cases cover all common and important problems likely to face the newly-qualified doctor in the casualty department, on the wards or in the clinic.
  • The questions although set in the context of the case are designed to test the reader's overall understanding of the most relevant aspects of each topic.
  • Well-illustrated with clinical photographs, pathological images and radiological scans and x-rays.

      Beynon: Progress in Colorectal Surgery 2nd Edition

      In a previous publication, the authors attempted to cover not only topical issues but also difficult problems that might confront recently appointed trainees in the decisions they make that confront these individuals in their future practices.
      Since that time, much of the thrust of coloproctology and government directives have centred around various aspects of colorectal cancer. The editors are thus of the opinion that they must not shy away from political incentive and have dedicated just over half of the present book to the diagnosis, presentation, and management of colorectal carcinoma.
      By contrast, the editors have also tried to draw attention to the fact that many patients with benign disorders of the colorectum have symptoms which are incompatible with a constructive and useful quality of life. Crohn’s disease is paramount in this respect and continues to provide challenges in both medical and surgical management. Moreover, coloproctologists continue to be vexed by the problems presented by the diagnosis and treatment of functional bowel disorders, and it is hoped that the chapters in this book will help to demystify the investigation and treatment of incontinence and constipation.

      • 1 The Effective and Efficient Management of Patients with Rectal Bleeding to Identify the Few with Cancer
      • 2 Screening for Colorectal Cancer

        Savage: Atlas of Mitral Valve Repair

        Mitral valve repair was one of the first operations performed on the heart. In 1923 Elliot Cutler performed a successful valvotomy for mitral stenosis.1 Though this was a destructive rather than a reconstructive procedure, it nevertheless is the first representation of the concept behind mitral valve repair—to use the patients own valvular tissue to create a functional, durable treatment for the affecting disease process. When valve prostheses were developed the surgeon's attention was temporarily diverted from repair. Prostheses were easier to place and required less ischemic time. However, the early enthusiasm for bioprostheses was tempered by their limited life span. Enthusiasm for mechanical prostheses was tempered by the requirement for anticoagulation. A few pioneers continued to develop and refine techniques and demonstrated that repair led to lower failure rates with a lower incidence of thromboembolism, hemorrhage, and infection. Despite this repair is probably underutilized by U.S. surgeons.2
        This book was conceived to foster and promote the application of repair techniques in mitral surgery. Because busy surgeons do not have much spare time we aimed for brevity. The stated goal at the outset was not to recommend, but instead to review and assess the wide variety of techniques surgeons have applied over the years to treat different problems. The book is organized based on techniques that address problems with specific valve components, attempting to present a number of solutions for similar problems. Since static diagrams often do not transfer well to the operating room we have included six complete annotated videos to supplement the text. However, unlike many video presentations, we have broken these up into specific segments with references within the text. We have included certain images from the video in the text to emphasize key points.
        For surgeons who perform mitral repair we hope this will be a nice review and perhaps add some new techniques to your armamentarium. For those just beginning to learn we hope this provides a suitable roadmap for your journey.
        Edward B. Savage and Steven F. Bolling
