This highly illustrated atlas provides a concise, comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the essence of gastric surgery. Gastric and thoracic surgeons in training receive widely differing degrees of instruction, to which this book succinctly addresses the essential techniques of advanced gastric surgery. Clearly detailed instruction describes the surgical procedures ranging from simple laparotomy and abdominal closure, to the more sophisticated techniques of subtotal and total gastrectomy with lymph node dissection, and total gastrectomy accompanied by oesophagectomy and oesophagojejunostomy. The resulting practical manual should better enable gastric and thoracic surgeons to perform treatments in digestive tract surgery.
