Preface
The Atlas of Human Anatomy by Frank H. Netter, MD, has been the pinnacle of demonstrating the anatomy of the human body for generations of students. To those who would wish to perform or understand surgical procedures, however, there has been no direct link between the beautiful images created by Dr. Netter and the surgical procedures being performed. In Netter’s Surgical Anatomy and Approaches, we try to address a request by many Netter users to tie these anatomical diagrams to the procedures they perform, while advancing the book from the description and images used in the first edition.
This book portrays the curriculum of basic and common general surgical procedures in chapters that describe the relevant anatomy for each procedure. In his very first edition, Dr. Netter stated that “anatomy of course does not change, but our understanding of anatomy and its clinical significance does.” Consequently, in some cases we have been able to pair the anatomy demonstrated in his illustrations with a modern intraoperative photograph or radiographic image, particularly focusing on the new approaches required for minimally invasive surgery. For many chapters, new Netter-style illustrations have been created to demonstrate key anatomical points for an operative procedure or to show a key surgical perspective or orientation that is not captured in the original Netter images. The result is a volume that covers the most important and common areas in surgery, as well as exploring complex areas such as transplantation and advanced cancer surgery.
A book like this would not be possible without the help of many people. Being fortunate to work at an institution like the Cleveland Clinic, I elected to enlist the support of my colleagues from many different surgical specialties. It is only with the guidance and assistance of the editorial team of Michael S. Benninger, MD, Tony R. Capizzani, MD, FACS, Tommaso Falcone, MD, FRCSC, FACOG, Stephen R. Grobmyer, MD, Jihad Kaouk, MD, Matthew Kroh, MD, Sean P. Lyden, MD, John H. Rodriguez, MD, FACS, Michael J. Rosen, MD, Christopher T. Siegel, MD, PhD, Allan Siperstein, MD, Scott R. Steele, MD, MBA, R. Matthew Walsh, MD, and the direction and guidance of the ever-patient Dan Fitzgerald and Marybeth Thiel at Elsevier that this project has been completed.
On behalf of my co-editors and myself, we hope you enjoy this second edition of Netter’s Surgical Anatomy and Approaches
