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.
