Surgical Diagnosis & Management

Dunn's Surgical Diagnosis and Management has become the standard textbook for house surgeons and final year medical students. The book is particularly valued for its consistent structure and practical information. Unlike similar texts, the book gives details of the day-to-day management of patients. The first part of the book covers general surgical management and ward care. The second part deals with the principles of surgical practice including fluid balance, sutures and drains and communicating with relatives and general practitioners.
