Manual of Basic Pelvic Surgery

The first test/atlas written by and for gynecologists and gynecology residents devoted to the topic of basic abdominal surgical techniques. It is an outgrowth of Dr. Nelson's critically acclaimed Atlas of Radical Pelvic Surgery. Covering all the basic skills that a training pelvic surgeon should possess, the book covers in step-by-step detail such topics as: preparation in the operating room; abdominal incisions; wound closures; surgical knots; electrocautery; suture materials; and stapling techniques.
