New Study Guide Essential for General Surgery Exams
MIAMI, Fl. (PRWEB) July 23, 2013 -- General surgery is something that should never be a puzzle to a surgeon. Neither should the examinations that get you there. That’s where "Puzzles in General Surgery: A Study Guide" comes in. Nothing is more tedious than a stay-up-all night study session for the American and Canadian examinations in General Surgery, but "Puzzles in General Surgery" takes the edge off with easy-to-remember study tools.
"Puzzles in General Surgery" begins with a review of the most commonly-tested diseases and disorders. It hits on the topics that medical students, surgical residents, and junior general surgeons will be tested on, including:
-Pathophysiology and etiology
-Classification and staging
-Clinical presentation and diagnosis
-Treatment including medical and surgical therapies
-Operative strategies and techniques
-Post-op care and complications
-Outcomes and follow-up
