About this book
'Essentials of Pediatric Endoscopic Surgery' approaches the implementation of endoscopic surgery by practising surgeons. The contributors are world renowned surgeons who have a vast experience and expertise in pediatric endoscopic surgery. Emphasis has been put on the decision making aspects, which have been divided under clear sections to highlight the important points in a concise manner. Pictorial operation room set-up and port placement sections help to optimize the ergonomics during procedures. Preoperative considerations along with the indications for surgery section offer better planning of procedures. The technical notes along with procedure variation sections give the readers the choice and information for opting for the possible modifications in procedures. The actual procedures are presented to the reader in high-quality photographs which offer a more accurate approach to the understanding of a procedure in a step-by-step manner. The incisive style makes this book a necessary part of every surgeon's library.

From the reviews:
"‘Since a picture speaks more than a thousand words, this monograph is designed to acquaint both the novice and the experienced surgeon with pediatric endoscopic procedures using surgical images and diagrams.’ With almost 550 pages of photographs and diagrams, this text accomplishs its task admirably. … This book is appropriate for surgical residents, fellows in pediatric surgery training, and pediatric surgeons."
