Download or read book Surgery of the Esophagus written by Jakob R. Izbicki and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-08-15 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While a surgeon many decades agotreated diseases from headtotoe, this concept has evolved, and today some degree of specialization is the rule worldwide. In many countries various boards for sub-specializations are designed, and after a broad training in general surgery, many young surgeons move on further into a specific field. Knowledge of anatomy and precise surgical technique remain the foundation of high quality surgery. A knowledgeable surgeon, equipped with excellent theore- cal and clinical skills, will only be accomplished when he or she masters the - erative techniques of the practice of surgery. The legacy of an academic surgeon or a surgical teacher relies in great part onthe transmission of his or her surgical abilities. Significant influence on the development in esophageal surgery arises from the surgical understanding of the anatomical and functional structures of the esophagus as well as the ongoing developments in the multidisciplinary m- agement in this challenging field of surgery. In bringing forth this atlas, we were motivated by the desire to create a comp- hensive and educational atlas on esophageal diseases, emphasizing all details of pathophysiologies, diagnostic strategies, pre- and postoperative management, and operative techniques covering minimally invasive and open procedures ranging fromstraightforward tomore complex procedures.

Download or read book Esophagectomy Post Surgical Guide Questions and Answers written by Esophageal Cancer Education Foundation and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-12-21 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE ESOPHAGEAL CANCER EDUCATION FOUNDATION The Esophageal Cancer Education Foundation (ECEF) www.fightec.org was formed in 2003 by Bart and Virginia Frazzitta. The initial purpose in establishing this 501 C 3 non-profit Organization was to help solicit funds for a CD ROM Project they had committed to fund for Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. The project had a cost of $75,000. This was achieved and it served as the beginning of this Foundation geared to focus on a mission statement that covered three goals, namely: To bring awareness and educate the public and medical community about this disease To walk the journey with caregivers and with patients who have this disease To support research projects that will lead to a test for early detection of this disease and also to hopefully cure this disease. ECEF has always kept its focus of not having a major expense factor and as such it does not now have any employees and its only major expense has been its web site development and administrative system. We needed to do this to handle the members and patients who have joined ECEF and have availed themselves of the services we provide. We will continue this approach as long as we have the volunteers needed to run an effective and efficient operation. Should this change our goal will be to keep all administrative expenses to no more than 20% of the revenue we have generated.

Download or read book Color Atlas of Surgical Anatomy for Esophageal Cancer written by Tatsuo Sato and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is essential to know all of the intricate lymph pathways when performing surgery for esophageal cancer in order to determine the extent of lymph node metastasis. Professor Sato has undertaken, at the request of the TNM Research Committee of the International Society for Diseases of the Esophagus, to map out and classify the lymph nodes of the mediastinum and neck. The beautiful artwork in the Color Atlas of Surgical Anatomy for Esophageal Cancer edited by Professor Sato gives an excellent understanding of the lymph node pathways and their importance in surgical treatment. Minute dissections which represent real life situations, not just the superficial pathways, show the precise location and topographical arrangement of the lymphatics. Full-color schematics are given with the actual dissection illustrations and photographs. The atlas clearly presents the classification of four significant pathways and their communication, the relationship of these pathways en route to the venous angles and the definition and assessment of the most critical nodes. Thoracic surgeons especially will benefit from the excellent illustrations of surgical techniques and the methods for recording the dissected lymph nodes which are presented by Professor Kakegawa. Leading experts fighting esophageal cancer with surgical treatment can use the classification in this outstanding atlas for many years to come as a standard for international comparison. The careful dissection of the lymph nodes may be the best way to improve survival rates after surgery for cancer of the thoracic esophagus.
