The volume 2 of this book covers the recent developments in various aspects of this new branch of surgery. Minimal Access Surgery (laparoscopic and robotic surgery) has advanced tremendously in the last few years. This volume provides step-by-step descriptions accompanied by numerous helpful photographs and anatomical drawings. It also covers the controversies and gives a cumulative opinion on the recent advances in MAS including MAS in oncology. Further topics are based on system wise and all volumes have separate chapters on the different topics within the system. 

This volume fills the void of a manual in minimal access surgery which benefits all, including the students of fellowships MAS, Master of Surgery, DNB Surgery and also young faculty or any practitioner.

Practical Application
5.0

Dense photographic atlas with stepwise surgical instructions across 19 chapters; functions as a direct operative guide for complex MAS techniques.

An excellent preoperative review tool and intraoperative refresher for surgeons performing advanced laparoscopic, thoracoscopic, and robotic procedures.

Reference Quality
4.0

Biennial series captures rapidly evolving MAS innovations; focused chapters provide quick, up-to-date reference for specific techniques and decision-making.

Valuable for departmental libraries, teaching rounds, and individual surgeons who wish to stay current with selective, high-impact MAS developments.

Learning Effectiveness
4.0

Abundant schematic illustrations and operative images facilitate visual learning; clear step-by-step format supports self-paced skill acquisition.

Optimal for learners in intermediate to advanced stages of surgical training who need to translate didactic knowledge to the operating theatre.

Knowledge Depth
4.0

Dedicated chapters dive deep into individual procedures (e.g., robotic neck dissection spans 38 pages) with detailed anatomical correlation and technique variations.

Appropriate for surgeons seeking a comprehensive grasp of selected index procedures, rather than a superficial survey of all minimal access techniques.

Curriculum Alignment
4.0

Explicitly targets MAS fellowship, Master of Surgery, and DNB Surgery curricula, covering key topics like laparoscopic colectomy, esophagectomy, and hernia repair.

Highly recommended as an exam-oriented companion for MAS fellowship candidates and surgical postgraduates needing recent, curriculum-aligned operative knowledge.
