Experimental surgery is an important link for the development in
clinical surgery, research and teaching. Experimental surgery was
part of the most important surgical discoveries in the past
century. Since 1901 nine Nobel Prizes have been awarded to the
pioneers had remarkable achievements in the basic or practical
surgery. In recent 20 years, experimental surgery has achieved new
advances, like laparoscopic and robotic surgery, tissue
engineering, and gene therapy which are widely applied in clinic
surgery. The present book covers wide experimental surgery in
preclinical research models subdivided in two volumes. Volume I
introduces surgical basic notions, techniques, and different
surgical models involved in basic experimental surgery and review
the biomechanical models, ischemia/reperfusion injury models,
repair and regeneration models, and organ and tissue
transplantation models, respectively. Volume II introduces several
specific experimental models such as laparoscopic and bariatric
experimental surgical models. The second volume also introduces
graft-versus-host disease, and other experimental models. Review
the advances and development of recent techniques such as tissue
engineering, organ preservation, wound healing and scarring, gene
therapy and robotic surgery. The book documents the enormous volume
of knowledge we have acquired in the field of experimental surgery.
In this book, we have invited experts from the United States,
Canada, France, Germany, China, Japan, Korea, UK, Sweden,
Netherland, Hungary and Turkey to contribute 36 chapters in the
fields of their expertise. These two volumes are the compilation of
basic experimental surgery and updated advances of new development
in this field that will be invaluable to surgeons, residents,
graduate students, surgical researchers, physicians, immunologists,
veterinarians and nurses in surgery.
