Complex General Surgical Oncology: Preparing for Boards and Early Practice - Paperback

by Carl Schmidt (Editor), Mary Garland Kledzik (Editor)

Aimed for surgeons specializing in Complex General Surgical Oncology (CGSO), this work intends to help the reader prepare for board examinations and guide decision-making. Chapters focus on key content with an emphasis on evidence-based medical decision making. A supplemental section provides challenging scenarios. The book uniquely uses outlines and bullet points instead of prose. Chapters provide objective numbers that reflect a thorough understanding of each topic and are a valuable resource. We hope these will also aid the surgeon during patient conversations while early in their practice.
