Book Description:

There has been an increase in litigation due to a failure of recognition of anal sphincter tears and inappropriate management. This aims to clarify and graphically demonstrate perineal anatomy and explain the pathophysiology of anal incontinence as well as applied pharmacology. It also institutes the new recommended classification of perineal tears and describes the various anal sphincter repair techniques. The emphasis is placed on the correct post-operative management, management of a subsequent pregnancy following previous anal sphincter injury and prevention of anal sphincter tears as an important issue that has not been given due consideration previously. The authors also focus on medical/legal implications in order to introduce safe medical practice.

The book will mostly be of interest to trainees and consultants, colorectal surgeons, physiotherapists, midwives, continence advisors, labour wards and lawyers.

Book Description:
Upper Gastrointestinal Surgery reflects the overwhelming need for such a book as this specialisation proceeds apace. The book covers all the foregut except the liver, bile duct and pancreas, looking at the diverse anatomy and physiology, the functions and the disease processes. The book reflects a significant change in the management of certain conditions, as our understanding of disease has improved. Technical developments have moved surgery forward; minimally invasive surgery being the treatment of choice for most upper GI operations for benign disease. With cancers of the upper GI tract being common, and with our understanding more of the genetic profile of tumours, we have identified premalignant lesions and cancer surgery is now targeted to allow stage appropriate therapies. This book gives a current and concise summary of all key topics within the specialty and concentrates on recent developments. Upper Gastrointestinal Surgery brings together an international group of contributors, all experts in their field, to provide a text for specialists and trainees.
