簡介(Book Description from Amazon)：
Coloproctology is a surgical specialty which dynamically changes every few years. There is a profusion of colorectal textbooks but specialty series on particularly complex topics as well as on the specialized management approach for trainees and training colorectal surgeons are actually few. The aim of this text is a superior quality colorectal book written by world experts targeted at senior surgical and colorectal trainees and young consultant coloproctologists in current areas of subspecialty expertise. The structure of the chapters is current and is based on what does not appear and is not addressed in current colorectal textbooks. This series has proven useful in areas already represented, including Neurosurgery, Vascular Surgery, Transplantation Surgery, etc. The text is aimed at being relatively didactic with an algorithm approach to specialized areas within coloproctology which could potentially be updated every 3 years or so with new topics to create a set for didactic training in colorectal surgery. It is anticipated that these texts will become valuable teaching textbooks and part of every coloproctologist’s armamentarium as well as appealing to all general surgeons and surgical trainees engaged in complex elective and emergency colorectal surgery.

Customer Reviews from Amazon:

very useful in bedside teaching
I recommended this book because I found it is very useful in bedside teaching, for CR and fellow. It focus on something that are interesting only by colorectal surgeon /proctologist. Though it is not a textbook, I also recommended this for fellow/young attending. The book is writing by many authors, bibliography as listed in Amazon web. Anyway, the writing style is friendly reading. The cited references are up-to-date. And even the long term results were well collected. For example, the long term result of glue for anal fistula is not as good as initial report. For example, the BRAF/KRAS gene mutation related with CIMP. For example, the debate on surgical timing of sigmoid diverticulitis. But, this also makes it not a textbook level for junior residents, because they have no ideas of those trials/meta-analysis reports. They may miss in the tables or flow chart, without supervised. The only disadvantage that I could find are lacking of robotic surgery/single-port/NOTEs comments, lacking of anal fistula ligation introduction, lacking of colonoscopy screening policy changing since last year. Reading this book bring me a lot of fun.
