This thoroughly revised second edition reflects the exponential growth in the complex field of decision making in colorectal surgery, since the first edition published in 2017. Recommendations are based on newly published data and this book has 30% new additions with 58% chapters completely rewritten by new authors. The chapters in each volume adhere to a specific format. This approach provides uniformity to the presentations, making it possible to identify useful material at a glance.

Covering new technology, brief chapters are multi-authored, and each devoted to one or two specific questions or decisions within that specialty that are difficult or controversial.  

Physicians from nonsurgical specialties give alternative and competing therapies for what was once the exclusive province of the surgeon.

This multi-authored book contains brief chapters devoted to one or two specific questions or decisions in colon and rectal surgery that are difficult or controversial. It is a current and timely reference source for practicing surgeons, surgeons in training, and educators that describes the recommended ideal approach, rather than customary care, in selected clinical situations.

Just like the other volumes in this series, the chapters in Difficult Decisions in Colorectal Surgery adhere to a specific format.  This approach provides uniformity to the presentations, making it possible to identify useful material at a glance.
