Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 15 years ago, Delaney and Varco edited a two-volume surgical bestseller entitled Controversies in Surgery. Despite major advances in surgical science and practice, no publication has since been put together with the specific aim of addressing major controversies in surgery. Crucial Controversies in Surgery addresses this deficiency by discussing in a highly readable point-counterpoint format the most crucial current controversies in the field of general, vascular and trauma surgery. Each author is a widely recognized authority in his or her field, and together these contributions comprise an international perspective on the most crucial controversies in surgery today.
