National Surgery Board Review presents our series of mock-oral board review manuals designed to prepare surgeons for the American Board of Surgery certifying examination. Included are scenarios that surgeons most typically encounter in everyday practice and the principles the Board expects practicing surgeons to master. The scenarios will add to the knowledge base that graduating surgeons already possess and help candidates with clinical reasoning skills and delivery of well-organized responses. The reviews are delivered in question-answer format followed by key pearls and teaching points. They are rooted in evidence-based surgical principles, edited, referenced and reviewed for relevance. They are all prepared by our elite faculty who boast world-class expertise in their subspecialty, as well as a distinct passion for surgical education. This volume contains in-depth dialogue and key teaching points related to commonly encountered scenarios in COLON AND SMALL BOWEL SURGERY. As with all National Surgery Board Review products, our manuals are focused on your success. Key topics covered include: colonic pseudo obstruction, small bowel obstruction, acute appendicitis, small bowel tumors, inflammatory bowel disease, colon cancer, diverticulitis, colonic volvulus/enterocutaneous fistula, Meckel's diverticulum, and clostridium difficile colitis.
