Review
Aus den Rezensionen: "Die Autoren brennen ein wahres literarisch-thoraxchirurgisches Feuerwerk ab ... Grundlegende Arbeiten werden ... kurz jedem Kapitel vorangestellt, im Pro-und-Kontra-Stil abgehandelt ... Dabei liegt das Buch ... ‘gut in der Hand‘ und ist fern jedweder Enzyklopädie: Dem Buch ist ... nicht nur ... weiteste Verbreitung, kontinuierliche Pflege der hoffentlich noch folgenden künftigen Aktualisierungen und Überarbeitungen, sondern vor allem eine in die deutsche Sprache übersetzte Ausgabe zu wünschen. Denn es gehört wohl ‘zum Besten’ gebündelter, nicht eminenzbasierter, akademischer ... (Thorax-)Chirurgie auf dem Markt und hilft allen im Gebiet ..." (Matthias Altmayer, in: Deutsches Ärzteblatt, 3/August/2009, Vol. 106, Issue 31-32, S. A1570)
From the Back Cover
Difficult Decisions in Thoracic Surgery: An Evidence-Based Approach describes the recommended ideal approach, rather than customary care, in selected clinical situations. Brief chapters are devoted to a specific question or decision in general thoracic surgery that is difficult or controversial. Although some of the content may be available in major thoracic texts, rarely are such questions posed specifically and analyzed according to the level of supporting evidence available. This book is unique in aiming to address the issues in the most clear and informed manner possible; the chapters contain both evidence-based recommendations and descriptions of surgeons’ personal practices based on their experience and the published literature. Chapters are organized around clearly identified recommendations. This provides uniformity to the presentations, making possible the identification of useful material at a glance. A general introduction describes evidence-based data and their use, decision analytic models, and how both physicians and patients make decisions currently. Over 50 different topics are then presented, including a review of available evidence and a general discussion of recommended practice. This book is a valuable reference source for practicing surgeons, surgeons in training, and educators.
