Atlas of Gastrointestinal Pathology

簡介(Book Description from Amazon)：

Effectively evaluate challenging GI biopsies with Atlas of Gastrointestinal Pathology: A Pattern Based Approach to Non-Neoplastic Biopsies! Presented in a format that closely mirrors the daily sign-out process, this one-of-a-kind resource helps you interpret challenging cases by highlighting red flags in the clinical chart and locating hidden clues in the slides. You’ll be able to reach confident diagnoses efficiently with this patterns based “scope-side guide”.

Customer Reviews from Amazon :

"Checklists" are the second useful feature of this atlas

Well, readers, now that we know how the first reviewer (a male pathologist) feels about women and specifically Dr. Elizabeth Montgomery (rather odd for a public Amazon review, don't you think?), let's talk about this lovely new textbook of GI pathology.

First of all, this is an atlas, so there are many, many more pictures than your typical text. There are 12 images of acute CMV gastritis; >20 images of normal variations in the small bowel; >20 of celiac/malabsorption; >30 of chronic colitis, etc. Each image is accompanied by an informative figure legend. For example: Figure 3.121 is in the section on medication injury. The image shows a high power view of crypts with abundant apoptosis. The legend explains that this is mycophenolate-induced injury, describes the confluent apoptotic activity, and gives a clinical scenario.

"Checklists" are the second useful feature of this atlas. Because the authors take a pattern-based approach to each entitiy (a reasonable way to organize pathologic entities, since we're all looking for patterns in our slides), each constellation of findings is described and given a differential diagnosis (a checklist). For example, there is a section on the "lymphocytic gastritis" pattern, which includes this checklist: infectious (Helicobacter, HIV), celiac, immune-mediated disorders (CVID, Crohn), Medications (ticlopidine, olmesartean,) and neoplasia. In my opinion, that's a very useful list to tick off when doing clinicopathologic correlation to provide good patient care. A sample of the other "checklists" in just the gastric section: reactive gastritis, acute gastritis, collagenous gastritis, gastric eosinosinophilia, gastric hyperplasia, and many more.

The final feature that I will mention in this review, and perhaps my favorite, is the "Sample Note." Here the authors provide an actual top-line diagnosis and note for the entity covered. Do you have a duodenum with increased intraepithelial lymphocytes but no villous blunting? There's a sample note for that. How about a possible syphilis proctocolitis? There's a sample note for that. Lichenoid pattern of the esophagus? There's a sample note for that. I always appreciate when experts in the field share their wording because clear communication is so important in our specialty.

I'll stop here and simply say that I think this is a good book for pathologists-in-training as well as practicing pathologists. Yes, it is succinct, and for that reason cannot be THE definitive text of non-neoplastic GI pathology, but that wasn't the authors' intent. Instead, this is an immensely practical book that I have pulled off of my shelf several times in just the past week.

Way more than just an atlas

This is surprisingly great! While sold as an atlas the author has wonderful well written text and sample dictations. Wonderful resource for residents wanting to understand GI pathology and great for those needing to teach GI path to others. Good job Dr. Arnold!

especially useful for those tip-of-the-tongue moments
The Atlas is a concise but sufficiently thorough reference book, especially useful for those tip-of-the-tongue moments, or for those uncommon (but not exceedingly rare) patterns one occasionally encounters.I believe this book will become a common reference for me similar to the Atlas of Gynecological Pathology or my copy of the latest Cytology by Cibas.

Surgery of complex abdominal wall defects

簡介(Book Description from Barnes and Noble)：

Complex abdominal wall hernias and complex abdominal wall defects, including stomas or the complications associated with any of the above, are common and challenging for surgeons. The lack of high quality evidence leaves surgeons without clear guidance regarding the selection of technique or material to be used when treating these serious problem. Surgery of Complex Abdominal Wall Defects has been written to provide this guidance. It covers the surgical anatomy of the abdominal wall, pathology of abdominal wall defects, such as hernias, enterocutaneous or entero-atmospheric fistulae, indications for, and surgical techniques used to, reconstruct the abdominal wall. In addition, through a number of illustrations, the placement of mesh in the abdominal wall reconstruction, as well as manipulations of patient’s tissue including lateral compartment release techniques and other tissue transfer techniques are described in detail. The text also covers reconstruction of complex contaminated abdominal wall defects in patients with complex enteric fistulae; ostomies, defects created after the excision of previously placed infected prosthetic mesh, and defects associated with acute tissue loss after severe trauma or necrosis of abdominal wall such as necrotizing soft tissue infections. Complex abdominal wall defects in pediatric population and long-term outcomes and durability of these repairs are also addressed. Surgery of Complex Abdominal Wall Defects is written by experts in their respective areas from around the world. It will serve as a guide for current practice for surgeons, including general, trauma, acute care, plastic and reconstructive surgeons.

Customer Reviews from Amazon :

Superb! The only one text about difficult problems in surgery of abdominal wall defects in English or Spanish.

Congratulations for the Dr. Latifi Rifat as editor and his dream team os specialists who endorse this special issue about surgery of complex abdominal wall defects. We find in it up to date and relevant information about that problematic situation from anatomy to phisiology to pathology to clinical support and of course the surgical corrections.
I love the chapter about entero-cutaneus and atmospheric fistulas.
Very well documented with recent references.
Very well illustrated with selected graphics.
As a general surgeon sometimes I have to operate on this kind of conditions and I had to research very disperse blbliography to actualize me. Now I have the Kindle edition of this book with all the data and references in one place. By the way the Kindle edition is excellent.
As a teacher of graduate and postgraduate students of surgery this book is going to improve the quality of what I try to teach.

Schiff's diseases of the liver

簡介(Book Description from Barnes and Noble)：

The name Schiff is synonymous with hepatology. Leon Schiff co-founded the AASLD in 1950 and was the main editor of this iconic book for the first 7 editions. Following Leon Schiff's death, his son Gene Schiff has taken on the lead editor role, and this 11th edition will be the 4th under his guidance. As a result, Schiff's Diseases of the Liver has been widely accepted as the number 1 clinical hepatology reference book for over 50 years.

With its strength being its strong clinical focus on hepatology, it covers anatomy, pathology, testing, imaging, and effects of liver disease on other organs, before moving on to sections that address specific diseases and clinical syndromes. Sections begin with a clear overview and chapters with a key concepts section that helps the reader quickly assimilate the most noteworthy information. Its enormous appeal has been due clarity of text, combined with a sheer thoroughness in its breadth of content. Key features include:

Gregg L. Friedman MD, Psychiatrist, Hallandale Beach, FL
I had the pleasure of studying under Dr Eugene Schiff at the University of Miami School of Medicine. Schiff's Diseases of the Liver is the definitive Hepatology textbook by which all other text are measured. Like Dr Schiff this textbook is very comprehensive and informative. It covers all aspects of liver disease in great detail. It is well worth the price to obtain this textbook. By Gregg L. Friedman MD, Psychiatrist, Hallandale Beach, FL

Integrative gastroenterology

簡介(Book Description from Barnes & Noble)：

This volume, under the authorship of Gerard Mullin at Johns Hopkins, and under the series editorship of Andrew Weil, the leading authority on integrative medicine in the US, offers a critical appraisal of integrative approaches to gastrointestinal disorders, including discussions of what's known and what's not known, and making practical recommendations on advising patients on controversial areas.

Meyers' dynamic radiology of the abdomen

簡介(Book Description from Barnes & Noble)：
The Sixth Edition continues the tradition of this great book by applying anatomic knowledge to state-of-the-art imaging. Chapters have been reorganized to help the reader better interpret imaging studies by clearly demonstrating what to expect and where to look for disease spread from each individual organ. Up-to-date chapters explore the dynamic concept, explain its embryologic and anatomic basis, and classify the mechanisms of disease progression. The latest imaging modalities, including CT, MRI, ultrasound, and PET, are incorporated throughout.

Customer Reviews from Amazon :

A great book!
This book is very famous in the field of abdominal imaging and I want to buy the dynamic radiology of the abdomen for a long time.
But knowing the release of the new edition, I had to wait for the release.
My first surprise when I got the book was that the book was thin!
From the description on Amazon.com., this book has 800 pages but actually only 420 pages, which was shocking. And it's a little revolution because the 5th edition had around 800 pages.
Explanation of subperitoneal space and peritoneal space are given easy-to-understand way. Anatomical and embryological viewpoint is emphasized.
Personally I like the chapters of retroperitoneal space and internal abdominal hernias.
Most of the figures are good quality and focused on the topic.
I recommend this book to all guys involved in this field.

Examination Review for Ultrasound
I was highly impressed with the layout of this review book. I like the way there are charts in each chapter that provide a summary of the key points. The review questions, at the end of each chapter, provide real world scenarios in which we may come across as a Sonographer. In addition, it comes with online access so that you can take mock registry exams; which is great practice for students.

Great book! The easily understandable descriptions of both normal and abnormal anatomy along with helpful charts, study questions, and ultrasound images makes this book a great way to review and prepare for both the Abd and OB/GYN ultrasound registry exams.

Coloproctology

(點選圖片可預覽部份內容)

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.
