As surgical practice becomes increasingly specialized it is difficult for an individual to keep abreast of new developments in every field. The situation is especially problematical for the surgical trainee who is expected to be familiar with all innovations. The established consultant may not feel inclined to delve into fields outside his immediate specialized interest; however, every so often he may be required to express an opinion or provide advice and hence up-to-date information becomes necessary. "Progress in Surgery" attempts to make these needs. In this volume aspects of both surgical science and practice are reviewed by experts with particular emphasis attached to true "progress". Some of the topics reviewed represent major surgical concepts important to all surgeons irrespective of speciality, such as immunology and wound healing. Major progress has been made, and continues to be apparent, in the management of a number of traditionally troublesome disorders, for example, venous thrombosis, adrenal disease, parathyroid disease, anorectal problems in children and morbid obesity. Surgeons are understandably intrigued by technical advances which have a potential impact on patient management. Such interest has surrounded the surgical application of lasers and venous access. Finally, it is important to review those common disorders which are responsible for significant levels of morbidity and mortality. Improvements in management continue to occur in the following areas: oesophageal cancer local recurrence of colorectal cancer, abdominal trauma and intracerebral haemorrhage all of which are covered in this volume.
