Book Description

March 1, 1998
This book is first and foremost written for the doctor in training and is based on the personal concepts and experiences of the authors gained over the years.
With illustrative case studies, the authors provide the basic anatomy of the anal region as a foundation for the comprehensive and unashamed description of the vast array of anal diseases including congenital disorders and those associated with specific pathological conditions such as cancer. This usually tentatively approached subject is described with vital surgical procedures for catastrophic conditions that, too often, follow the use of inappropriate treatments. The result is a practioners' manual providing expert knowledge that can improve the quality of life for affected patients.
Textbook of Anal Diseases is an educational text focusing on the symptomatology and diagnosis of disorders of the anus.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not complete, really..., November 23, 2004

Raphael (New the York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Textbook of Anal Diseases (Hardcover)
In the 10 or so years since Jensen wrote this compendum of classic anal discomfitia, many new diseases have been discovered. And as is common in a rapidly advancing and revising field, many symptoms have been found to be duplicates or triplicates of the same disorder.<br />
<br />
That is not to say this volume is entirely irrelevant. Though effective in its time, the world of anal diseases is constantly expanding. Books like this need be published annually to keep with the groundbreaking research being done in this feild. Furthermore, new advances in techonology have given a new face to anal diseases. New photographic advances have aided immensely in the discovery of this hidden and mysterious world. Photographs, however unappealing to the layman, would be of immeasurable use in clinical diagnosis.<br />
<br />
Jensen's work is largely autobiographical, culled from his years as a gastrointestinal researcher. But it surely should be updated for current clinical use.
