SummaryTable of Contents
Here's the leading resource on endocrine surgery-fully revised and updated in a New Edition! It examines disorders of the thyroid, parathyroid, and adrenal glands as well as neuroendocrine tumors of the pancreas and gastrointestinal tract. Leading authorities from around the world discuss diagnosis, localization, intraoperative management, and surgical therapy for the full range of endocrine conditions.

  • Considers etiology, embryology, anatomy, clinical manifestations, and diagnostic and localization procedures as well as surgical and other treatment modalities for the full range of endocrine disorders.
  • Reviews rationales, pre-operative considerations, operative techniques, and post-operative treatment for each procedure ... as well as the benefits, risks, controversial issues, and cost-effectiveness of each approach.
  • Makes complex information easy to understand with more than 500 line drawings and photographs.


  • New chapters on genetic analysis, localization tests for thyroid cancer, and new surgical techniques for tumors.
  • In-depth coverage of important advances in molecular biology A· minimally invasive surgery to the thyroid and parathyroid A· islet cell transplants A· preoperative evaluation and surgical treatment of hyperparathyroidism A· indications and techniques for laparoscopic and open adrenalectomy A· potential new treatments for thyroid cancer and other tumors A· radiation exposure related to thyroid cancer A· and more.
