Operative Dictations in General and Vascular Surgery, the first volume in Springer's new Operative Dictations Made Simple Series, teaches residents the principles of succinct and precise operative dictations for a wide spectrum of procedures. Accompanied by a user-friendly PDA version, and written by an experienced team of a surgical program director and a department chair, this portable guide is flexible and accommodates variations in the surgical procedures performed. The book also serves as a quick review of the essential operative steps. Mirroring Chassin's Operative Strategy in General Surgery, this book makes a great companion volume and is clearly a must-have for every surgical resident.

Focusing on the technical aspects of vascular reconstructions, this manual is designed to enhance surgical residents' skills through a detailed, step-by-step approach. Developed after a workshop at the University of Iowa, it addresses common queries related to vascular instruments, grafts, sutures, and anatomy. The book is structured into four parts, beginning with a review of essential tools and materials, providing a practical resource for residents preparing for their vascular rotation, rather than a replacement for traditional atlases.

This must-have manual for surgical residents and vascular surgery trainees is copiously illustrated with more than 250 original line drawings. The author presents in a step-by-step fashion the techniques for all common vascular reconstructions, basics of exposure and access, as well as invaluable technical pearls and tips. The text provides the surgical trainee with the opportunity to review and practice the necessary vascular reconstructions before entering the operating room. The illustrations and clear instructions make this a manual that is referred to again and again throughout the surgical residency.
