| Summary, etc. | The success of the first version of the Atlas of Upper<br/>Gastrointestinal and Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Surgery, published in 2007, encouraged us to prepare<br/>an updated version keeping the spirit of the original<br/>Atlas, and adding modifications, novelties, and new<br/>innovations in the technical aspects of these operative<br/>procedures. For the new edition, we added a leader<br/>in the field of Liver and Biliary Surgery from Asia,<br/>Dr. Masaru Miyazaki. Modifications of the text were<br/>needed in about 60% of the chapters, and modifications and additions in the artwork in about 30% of<br/>the chapters. To follow emerging developments in surgery, we added new approaches in laparoscopic and<br/>robotic surgery in many chapters. Also to enhance<br/>clarity, the liver section is now divided into transplant<br/>and non-transplant procedures. New procedures are<br/>described, such as the new two-staged liver resection<br/>ALPPS or the use the new electroporation technology<br/>for targeted tumor ablation. Two new chapters were<br/>added to Section 1 on general principles including:<br/>general surgical devices for cutting and sealing and an<br/>introduction to robotic surgery, because this section<br/>showed highest rank in online downloads for the first<br/>edition of the Atlas.<br/>Knowledge of anatomy and precise surgical technique remain the foundation of high-quality surgery.<br/>A knowledgeable surgeon, equipped with excellent<br/>theoretic and clinical skills, will only be accomplished<br/>when he or she masters the operative techniques of<br/>the practice of surgery. The legacy of an academic surgeon or a surgical educator relies in great part on the<br/>transmission of his or her surgical abilities to handson clinical practice. During the last few years, we as<br/>surgical educators felt more and more that teaching<br/>surgical skills and techniques are compromised due<br/>to the plethora of new information dealing with other<br/>aspects of surgery. The number of new procedures and<br/>techniques developed since the early 1990s, as for example, laparoscopic liver resection or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, although offering obvious advantages for<br/>the patients, constitute a real technical challenge for us<br/>surgeons. Therefore, possibly more than ever before,<br/>surgeons need to update their knowledge about the<br/>various surgical procedures and techniques available.<br/>In bringing forth the first and second editions of the<br/>atlas, our goal was to create a comprehensive and<br/>educational tool focusing on the upper abdomen<br/>and emphasizing all details of operative techniques<br/>including “tricks” from experienced surgeons. In view<br/>of the availability of many textbooks describing nontechnical aspects of surgery, we purposely avoided<br/>writing a text addressing the disease processes, but<br/>instead concentrated on the operative techniques,<br/>which are evolving rapidly. The technical aspects described are the real message of the atlas. We standardized the text associated with each procedure, covering<br/>a list of the most common indications and contraindications, a step-by-step description of the procedure,<br/>a list of the most common complications, and finally<br/>the insightful tricks of the experienced surgeon. We<br/>also included an introductory section covering basic<br/>principles of operative surgery including operative<br/>accesses, positioning of the patient, and the use of<br/>retractors, drains, staplers, and the newer devices to<br/>facilitate dissection, transection, and hemostasis both<br/>for laparoscopy and open surgery.<br/>While a surgeon 50 years ago could treat diseases from<br/>head to toe, this concept has evolved, and today some<br/>degree of specialization is the rule worldwide. Most<br/>countries or accrediting authorities have designed<br/>various boards for sub-specializations; indeed, after<br/>a broad training in general surgery, many young surgeons will move on further into a specific field. Upper<br/>gastrointestinal and hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery<br/>have emerged as specialized fields of general surgery,<br/>including common procedures belonging to the scope<br/>of general surgery as well as complex procedures, that<br/>probably should be performed only by specialized<br/>surgeons. We opted for a comprehensive approach of<br/>upper gastrointestinal and hepato-pancreato-biliary<br/>surgery, covering most open and laparoscopic procedures ranging from straightforward procedures such<br/>as laparoscopic cholecystectomy to the more complex<br/>procedures, such as spleno-renal shunt and liver or<br/>pancreas transplantation.<br/>This second edition of the Atlas of Upper Gastrointestinal and Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Surgery presents<br/>consistent illustrations created by a single artist. This<br/>approach is key to following a procedure, step-by-step,<br/>in a consistent and attractive manner. In selecting<br/>contributors from literally all around the world, we<br/>sought surgeons who had extensive and recognized<br/>experience with the procedure. The contributors are<br/>established educators and have successfully mentored<br/>many young surgeons.<br/>The Atlas of Upper Gastrointestinal and Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Surgery is subdivided into seven sections, each coordinated by a section editor in a close<br/>collaboration with the artist. A balance was achieved<br/>in each procedure to highlight the educational message in combination with the art of medical drawing. |
| Expansion of summary note | Based on the personal experience of the expert authors, a few tricks are presented at the end of each<br/>procedure. Some procedures, such as those related to<br/>portal hypertension, are becoming less popular. This<br/>atlas may contribute significantly to preserving the accumulating knowledge of these demanding surgical<br/>procedures as these procedures become less frequent.<br/>The second edition of the Atlas of Upper Gastrointestinal and Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Surgery is intended<br/>for students and residents in surgery and for fellows<br/>specializing in upper gastrointestinal and hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery preparing themselves for the<br/>operation. At the same time, this atlas will be useful<br/>for specialists and general surgeons who may compare<br/>their techniques with the one described herein or find<br/>some additional help or tricks when performing rare<br/>procedures.<br/>In summary, we believe that the second edition of the<br/>Atlas of Upper Gastrointestinal and Hepato-PancreatoBiliary Surgery is truly a new atlas, new in concept,<br/>and new in scope.<br/>We hope that specialists as well as surgeons at various<br/>levels of training will benefit from this huge effort,<br/>combining the work of many experts, a gifted artist,<br/>and the publisher. |
