Features: The book "Practical Surgery of the Abdomen," edited by the renowned Chinese surgical expert Academician Wu Xianzhong, has been widely welcomed by readers since its publication in 1990. It has been reprinted three times, yet still fails to meet the demand of readers. In response to the needs of readers, the author spent two years revising the book extensively and adding many new chapters. Led by Academician Wu Xianzhong, the book is written by a team of young and middle-aged elite surgeons. It reflects the latest advances, theories, and achievements in modern abdominal surgery, serving as a comprehensive advanced reference book on abdominal surgery. It holds significant value for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of abdominal diseases. The book is divided into two parts, with over 2 million words and 38 chapters. The first part, General Principles, covers the etiology, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and treatment of modern abdominal diseases, including B-mode ultrasound, color Doppler ultrasound, medical imaging, endoscopy, hemodialysis, acupuncture, traditional Chinese medicine, and intensive care. The second part, Specific Diseases, discusses the diagnosis and treatment of various conditions such as abdominal wall, stomach and duodenum, small intestine, colon, gallbladder, bile duct, pancreas, spleen, and organ transplantation. The book is widely applicable and suitable for reading by surgeons, pediatricians, gynecologists, internists, and various technical personnel.
