About this title

Synopsis

Real-life cases for the surgery clerkship and shelf-exam

"Overall, this is a useful book for anyone preparing for the surgical clerkship exam or needing review prior to the USMLE. The information is presented concisely and clearly and the questions at the end of each section reinforce the most important information. The addition of new cases and revision of previous cases make it a worthwhile update. 3 Stars."--Doody's Review Service
