Manipal Manual Of Surgery Rajgopal Shenoy, 7e: 2 Vol Set by Rajgopal Shenoy (PB)

This is the completely rewritten, carefully updated and thoroughly revised edition of the popular Manual, specially aimed at the undergraduate medical students. This edition has been designed and cast according to the latest National Medical Commission (NMC) Guidelines | Competency Based Medical Education (CBME) Curriculum under Graduate Medical Education Regulation.

All the chapters have been modified, rearranged and sequenced to suit the teaching-learning of the subject of surgery under the current CBME pattern. New chapters on postoperative complications and congenital anomalies of the genitourinary tract have been added. New digital content provided with this edition includes important subject topics, videos of clinical signs and examination, and some interesting problem-oriented discussions.

The limited time-frame available to the undergraduate students makes it necessary for them to be able to read a good comprehensive book reliably, and this edition fully meets just that requirement. The Manual presents the entire information necessary for the undergraduate students in an easy-to-read format which helps them in learning, long-term retention and effortless recollection. The theory behind the practice of surgery is covered in a simple manner.

The rich collection of clinical photographs, precisely drawn colour graphics, crisply presented flowcharts, high value tables, key boxes and algorithms lucidly explain and supplement the facts given in the text which will help even the postgraduate students of surgery and practising surgeons. The significant addition in this edition is the Clinical Case Capsules which will help in problem-based learning and also in improving readers’ interpretation skills. The most highlighting features of the Manual are Clinical Notes, Wisdom Lines, Most Interesting and Most Common Facts and Ten Commandments. Multiple Choice Questions have been added to benefit not only the undergraduate but also the postgraduate students in their examinations.
