Principles and Practice of Pediatric Surgery

Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2004

In the preface to the text that preceded this edition, we predicted that the pace of change in the clinical practice of pediatric surgery, and in our understanding of the scientific principles that are the basis for that practice, would soon render the text obsolete. That expectation was more predictable than prescient,...
