Experiences in Clinical Surgery

Description

Synopsis

This book is patient oriented right from the beginning. It is not intended for the usual didactic description of a subject. The clinician is presumed to have preloaded himself with the knowledge of the subject so that he can analyse the problem with which the patient presents. It is meant for training an under graduate or post graduate candidate so that he can understand what exactly is the pathology of the patient’s problem. So, depending on the available clinical data the clinician can arrive at a diagnosis and plan out the best method of treatment for that particular patient. This book will provocate the student to think about the disease process. The diagnosis will be based on demonstration of certain signs on the patients based on which the student will learn how to defend his diagnosis. Other similar books describe the clinical diagnosis first and advises to look for particular signs in the patients; which all may not be present with; and the clinician might have to refer multiple books. The very purpose of the book is to make the clinician think and analyse the available clinical data so that he/she can arrive at a correct clinical diagnosis.
