Surgeons love operating, but no one likes paperwork. The operative protocol, commonly known as the operation report, is one of the most important elements of medical documentation, which is prepared by the surgeon. Accurately recording what happened in the operating room, what the indications were, what was found, what was done, who participated in the operation, what sutures and instruments were used, and what anatomical anomalies were found is a basic skill that a surgeon must learn. Currently, doctors training in surgery rarely receive detailed instructions on how to create a concise operative protocol containing key information.

This book is divided into volumes that cover various areas of surgery. Volume 1 focuses on the esophagus, stomach and duodenum, small intestine and appendix. Volume 2 is dedicated to the large intestine, rectum and sacrococcygeal region, liver and biliary tract, and pancreas. Volume 3 discusses the spleen, treatment of hernias and operations for necrotizing fasciitis, breasts, lymph nodes, head and neck, and other procedures.
