Atlas of Laparoscopic Digestive Operations

The Atlas of Laparoscopic Digestive Operations describes the operation's majority from esophagus to anus, of the abdominal wall, liver, pancreas, spleen and adrenal glands. Each operation is described step be step with original handmade watercolor illustrations. The Atlas is aimed to surgical residents committed in their first years' training, eventually before to embark upon a more specialized field in digestive surgery or to choose to keep a wider approach to digestive laparoscopy. The Atlas has also maybe the goal to be reviewed by the attending who will supervise a junior colleague in a systematic learning of surgery. It is written by a surgeon who worked in University hospitals in Switzerland and abroad and was thus brought face to many surgical tactiques and techniques all around the world. Thus, this work is the bunch of one surgeon's experience who knows that, in surgery, there are different opportunities to do right and also different ways to make wrong.
