Single Best Answers in Surgery

Single Best Answer (SBA) examinations are an increasingly popular means of testing medical students and those undertaking postgraduate qualifications in a number of subject areas. Fully revised throughout and expanded in this second edition to include questions on surgical anatomy and critical care, 500 Single Best Answers in Surgery provides invaluable guidance from authors who understand from personal experience that detailed and accurate explanations are the key to successful revision.

This book presents 500 SBA-style questions arranged by specialty area as well as a practice exam of random questions. A clear discussion of how the correct answer was reached and other options rules out for every question is given at the end of each section, making this book an excellent learning aid during all stages of surgical studies, particularly while preparing for medical finals and beyond into early postgraduate training.
