 'Essentials of Pediatric Endoscopic Surgery' addresses the essential and practical aspects of laparoscopic surgery in the pediatric age group. It offers the readers the opportunity to understand, in a well-outlined manner, the approach to decision making in the implementation of laparoscopic surgery, along with a step-by-step explanation of the procedures using high quality operative photographs. The extensive coverage of pediatric surgery makes this book suitable for both beginners and experts.
