| Summary |
The idea for the book emanated from the experience of one of the editors, Dr. Hana Ajouz, who encountered many general surgery residents who were seeking a good ABSITE review book from which to study, and none was found to be truly comprehensive and up-to-date. There is an immense need for a comprehensive yet concise and easy-to-use book that has a clear structure and one that reflects new findings, methods and references that current surgical residents will find to be applicable. The intentional structure of the book is simply this - capture the most pertinent information for each specialty that is on the SCORE curriculum and frequently asked on the ABSITE exam and present it to the reader in a capsulized, simplified format of charts or tables. Hence, in addition to its study-friendly structure, this review book comprehensively mirrors most contemporary general surgery curricula. It also encompasses key operative steps of wider general surgery procedures, which most review books lack. Moreover, while most ABSITE review books are written by one or a few authors, each chapter in this book is reviewed/authored by someone with expertise in their specialty. This compiles the experience of many authorities into one resource helping general surgery residents stay up-to-date with the most recent and important concepts in the field |
