Schwartzs Principles of Surgery Volume 1 and 2 : 11th Edition

Schwartz's Principles of Surgery is a foundational textbook widely regarded as the gold standard in surgical education for more than half a century. The 11th edition, edited by F. Charles Brunicardi, Dana K. Andersen, Timothy R. Billiar, and colleagues, continues the tradition of offering comprehensive, evidence-based coverage of all major topics in general surgery. The new two-volume set has been entirely revised with an emphasis on the latest in surgical science, operative techniques, and clinical practice. This edition features a modern, full-color design, with more than 800 photos and 1,300 illustrations, most in full color, to enhance visual learning. The content is organized by organ system and surgical specialty, emphasizing high-yield discussions on diagnosis and management. Each chapter includes key points, diagnostic and management algorithms, and critical references. Additionally, the book is enhanced by online videos demonstrating key surgical operations, including laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair, kidney transplant, laparoscopic cholecystectomy, thyroidectomy, right colectomy, sigmoid colectomy, laparoscopic incisional hernia repair, and open posterior component separation. This edition also introduces new chapters addressing contemporary surgical issues and professional development, making it an essential resource for surgical trainees, practicing surgeons, and educators.
