Unlike general surgery books which describe standard or model procedures, this publication focuses on actual clinical settings where conventional surgeries cannot be performed, or where indications for surgery are uncertain. It reviews 20 of the thousands of hepato-pancreato-biliary surgeries performed at the University of Tokyo Hospital. The contributors provide detailed descriptions of surgical procedures as well as indications, diagnostic imaging findings, risk assessments, pathological findings, and prognoses. The procedures covered include laparotomy, laparoscopic surgery, and liver transplantation. The challenges and outcomes of each case are explained in detail. This publication will be useful to young surgeons with the goal of becoming highly skilled in hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery, already established hepato-pancreato-biliary surgeons, and surgeons specializing in other fields.

This book examines in detail the topic of sepsis, with a focus on intra-abdominal sepsis. Particular attention is devoted to source control in the management of the infection, antimicrobial therapy and sepsis support, which represent the cornerstones of treating patients with this problem. The importance of a multidisciplinary approach is highlighted not only by the instructive and informative sections on the acute manifestations of appendicitis, cholecystitis, and cholangitis, perforations and diverticulitis, Clostridium difficile infection and the role of candida in abdominal sepsis, but also by an extensive discussion of issues including antimicrobial resistance, damage control surgery, principles of antimicrobial therapy, hemodynamic support, adjunctive therapies, and thromboprophylaxis. Abdominal sepsis is the host’s systemic inflammatory response to intra-abdominal infections. It is associated with significant morbidity and mortality rates, and represents the second most common cause of sepsis-related mortality at intensive care units. Gathering contributions by authoritative experts from all around the world, this book will allow acute care surgeons, abdominal surgeons, intensive care clinicians, and students to broaden their understanding of intra-abdominal sepsis in daily clinical practice.

Emergency Surgery provides both a practical guide and an understanding of the issues that need to be considered in the management of emergency surgery patients. It presents a clear account of the key issues involved in the assessment, investigation, resuscitation and surgical management of patients who present to the on-call emergency team. It considers the full breadth of issues encountered in these patients including anaesthesia, pre-op resuscitation/optimization, and initial post-operative care including preliminary high dependency/critical care, as well as the complications and acute issues found in acute surgical patients on the ward. It is ideal for surgical trainees as well as trainees from other specialties involved in the care of these complex and challenging patients.
