This third edition text provides a completely revised and updated
new version of this unique, modern, practical text that covers the
strategic evaluation, specific approaches, and detailed management
techniques utilized by expert colorectal surgeons caring for
patients with complex problems-whether they result from underlying
colorectal disease or from complications arising from previous
surgical therapy. The format follows that of both a "how to" manual
as well as an algorithm-based guide to allow the reader to
understand the thought process behind the proposed treatment
strategy. By making use of evidence-based recommendations, each
chapter includes not only background information and
diagnostic/therapeutic guidelines, but also provides a narrative by
the author on his/her operative technical details and perioperative
"tips and tricks" that they utilize in the management of these
complex surgical challenges. Distinctive to this book, is the
reliance on experts in the field including past presidents of the
ASCRS, as well as multiple other national and internationally
recognized surgeons, to lend their personal insight into situations
where data may be more sparse, but individual and collective
experience is paramount to making sound decisions and thereby
optimizing patient outcomes. The text includes chapters on the
assessment of risk and methods utilized to minimize perioperative
complications. In addition, it incorporates sections covering the
medical and surgical therapies for abdominal, pelvic and anorectal
disease. Moreover, the technical challenges of managing
complications resulting from the original or subsequent operations
is addressed. The underlying focus throughout the text is on
providing pragmatic and understandable solutions that can be
readily implemented by surgeons of varying experience to
successfully treat complex colorectal problems. However, it also
goes beyond the technical aspects of colorectal surgery and
includes special sections highlighting the essence of a surgeon;
covering aspects involving the medical-legal, ethical, and economic
challenges confronting surgeons. Throughout the text, each author
provides an ongoing narrative of his/her individual surgical
techniques along with illustrations and diagrams to "personally"
take the reader through the crucial steps of the procedure, and key
points of patient care inherent to that topic. Additionally, where
appropriate, links to online videos give the reader an up-front
look into technical aspects of colorectal surgery.
