A 64-year-old woman has been referred to the on-call general
surgical team by her GP. She has been complaining of pain in the
upper part of her abdomen and generalized itching. Her daughter has
also noticed a yellowish discolouration of her skin. The symptoms
started a week ago and are gradually getting worse. You have been
assigned her initial assessment... 100 Cases in Surgery presents
100 scenarios requiring surgical treatment commonly seen by medical
students and junior doctors in the emergency department or
outpatient clinic. A succinct summary of the patient's history,
examination, and initial investigations-including photographs where
relevant-is followed by questions on the diagnosis and management
of each case. The answer includes a detailed discussion on each
topic, with further illustration where appropriate, providing an
essential revision aid as well as a practical guide for students
and junior doctors. Making speedy and appropriate clinical
decisions, and choosing the best course of action to take as a
result, is one of the most important and challenging parts of
training to become a doctor. These true-to-life cases will teach
students and junior doctors to recognize important surgical
conditions, and help to develop their diagnostic and management
skills.
