An illustrated, invaluable guide to surgical techniques and management in trauma

The Atlas of Trauma Surgery is a high-yield, step-by-step guide to commonly performed surgeries in trauma and acute care settings. Concise, templated chapters detail operative indications, tips and tricks, post operative considerations, complications, and follow-up care.

Much more than a compilation of procedures, the Atlas serves as a visual narrative of surgical decision-making in trauma, drawn from real-world experience and designed for clarity and immediate application in the operating room. With an emphasis on operative steps and patient management, this is an ideal resource for trauma surgeons as well as general surgeons, vascular surgeons, and orthopedic surgeons.

The Atlas of Trauma Surgery features:

• Instructions for each operation as well as possible complications
• Coverage of acute care and emergency surgery procedures
• An AAST Grading Table
• More than 200 surgical anatomy procedural illustrations and clinical images
