  • Especially in thoracic surgery circles, and is the leading competitor of our esophageal spin-off

  • Lower price and wider name recognition within general surgery places it at an advantage in comparison to the Pearson book

  • A true atlas while the Pearson is a combined text/atlas with material many readers may find extraneous if they are looking primarily for technique

  • Another competitor and uncontested classic, Skinner's Atlas of Esophageal Surgery, is not only outdated, but it does not include minimally invasive techniques

  • No plans for revision were ever discovered for this book

About this book

Chassin’s Operative Strategies in Esophageal Surgery offers the reader a succinct review of surgical techniques for disorders of the esophagus. Spanning from well-established legacy procedures to the most up-to-date minimally invasive approaches for GERD, this brilliantly illustrated atlas exclusively presents the theoretical basis of the operations as well as the strategies required to steer clear of common pitfalls. Educed from Chassin’s Operative Strategies in General Surgery, this volume includes step-by-step descriptions of thirteen (13) operative procedures in esophageal surgery.
