This manual on surgery, gathering 30 clinical cases, provides the reader with a better understanding to perform surgeries in dogs and cats with gastrointestinal disorders. Both simple and complex cases are addressed, detailing patient’s history, physical examination, surgical preparation and technique, as well as additional considerations. It is the intention of the authors of this book to present a series of assorted surgical cases related to the digestive system.

Some less commonly presentations, with their own puzzling demands, will be also addressed.

Mountain Emergency Medicine has seen exponential development due to the ever-increasing number of people who hike or trek as well as practice extreme sports. Emergency physicians and nurses need to be equipped with the necessary training to be able to manage “on the field” accidents and sicknesses as well as their own physical security. Theoretical knowledge is generally of high level but practical expertise is dangerously lacking in many operators. Furthermore, treatment modalities on the field have not been completely codified and are not supported by internationally-accepted guidelines. This book is the first to offer a complete and thorough approach to this field of Emergency Medicine based on the latest research findings.
