Review of Surgery for ABSITE and Boards, 2nd Edition, is a comprehensive review textbook organized to assist trainees preparing for the ABSITE and surgical board examinations. It provides practice material structured around the single best answer multiple-choice format used on these surgical examinations.
Coverage encompasses major areas of operative patient care, including abdominal conditions, alimentary tract disorders, trauma, surgical critical care, and vascular interventions. The text also reviews essential clinical principles such as oncology, wound healing, and perioperative care.
Featuring 957 multiple-choice questions, the volume includes explanatory rationales grounded in major reference works across surgical literature. The review questions were evaluated over several years with surgical residents at Harbor-UCLA, where participant examination scores demonstrated significant improvement.
