The complexity of decision making in thoracic surgery is growing
exponentially. As new technology is introduced, physicians from
nonsurgical specialties offer alternative and competing therapies
for what was once the exclusive province of the thoracic surgeon.
In addition, there is increasing knowledge regarding the efficacy
of traditional thoracic surgical therapies. How to select among
these varied and complex approaches is becoming increasingly
difficult. The first two editions of this book have found wide
acceptance among practicing surgeons, trainees, and educators.
Chapters from them are regularly cited by the Thoracic Surgery
Directors Association as valuable resources for their weekly
curriculum exercises. As in the first two editions, chapters adhere
to a specific format (updated for the third edition). This approach
provides uniformity to the presentations, making it possible to
identify useful material at a glance.
