Each chapter begins with surgical anatomy and physiology; essential relevant investigations; different topics discussed in an orderly fashion so that readers will have flow of thoughts and materials with a lucid language. Every topic in all chapters is covered as per syllabus including CBME. Definition, pathophysiology, clinical features, evaluation methods and treatment are highlighted so that students can understand the subject in an analytical way rather than memorising the subject. Brief operative techniques are added wherever they are needed. Adequate good quality photographs, illustrations are placed so that students can imagine the clinical entity better way. Image provokes imagination which leads into analytical approach. Even though guidelines are provided in managing patients, finally surgery is the analysis, decision making and careful implementation of the strategy in a defined way. CBME syllabus was added with several newer topics like metabolic response to injury, tissue engineering, etc. Online MCQs are added chapter-wise so that students can have idea how MCQs are asked in different chapters.
