Description:
Meticulous attention to the basic principles of surgery is critical in order to achieve a
good surgical outcome. Good surgeons are not those who are simply skilled at surgery,
but those who ensure that every aspect of patient care is performed to the highest
standard. Complications that arise following surgery are often attributable to a lack of
understanding or appreciation of the importance of these basic principles.
The BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Surgical Principles provides a solid grounding
in best practice for the basic tenets of veterinary surgery. It will be particularly helpful
for veterinary students, new graduates and veterinary nurses, as well as any veterinary
surgeon wishing to update their knowledge.
