I am a first year medical student interested in surgical specialities and I was looking for a book that teaches the basic skills in surgery. Today medical schools gives poor attention to that subject and this book fills a void. It allowed me to start my training in an early stage. The text is very clear and the illustrations are excellent! Comes with 2 CD-ROM that help to visualize the procedures. Excellent buy!

This book provides a great basic introduction to surgical skills including scrubbing, surgical instruments, obtaining hemostasis (topical, electrocautery and free vessel ligature), an overiview of needle and suture material design and tabulated uses of suture options. Principles of knot-tying (2-handed and instrument-tie for both left and right-handed surgeons) and several basic suture techniques (simple, vert. & horiz. mattress, running, running/lock, intracuticular, deep/subcuticular and purse string) are illustrated nicely and easy to follow. The section on skin flaps is a real asset to the book. It covers fusiform, advancement, rotation, note, bilobe, and rhombic flaps as well as Z-plasty. The CD-rom has several clinical demonstrations of flaps in real patients. I recommend this to any medical student, regarless of your year in school, to get a head-start on some of the skills you will use in the OR during your rotations.
