  With the introduction of the Foundation Programmes, junior doctors will be exposed to a broad variety of specialities in both elective and emergency settings. This handbook has been written to provide practical guidance on some of the more common problems faced in different surgical sub-specialities in a clear and accessible format. Each chapter focuses on a particular surgical sub-speciality and emphasizes the key points in the history, examination, investigation and treatment of common presentations and pathologies. This book also gives advice on how to manage the common problems that you will face during on-calls, how to avoid pit-falls and also provides background information on key subjects. The Surgeon's Survival Guide is designed principally for new foundation doctors but will also be of benefit to medical students and those approaching the MRCS examinations.
