Principles of Abdominal Surgery – Dr Wael Metwaly

Principles of Abdominal Surgery by Dr Wael Metwaly is a focused surgery book designed for medical students, interns, junior doctors, and surgical trainees who need a clear and organized source for abdominal surgery revision. The book is suitable for studying gastrointestinal surgery, clinical rounds, exam preparation, and surgical rotations.

Abdominal surgery is one of the most important parts of general surgery because it includes common and high-impact clinical problems related to the oesophagus, stomach, hepatobiliary system, pancreas, appendix, intestine, peritoneum, spleen, jaundice, obstruction, and anal canal. Understanding these topics helps the reader connect anatomy, pathology, clinical presentation, investigations, operative decision-making, and basic management.

This book is especially useful for students who want a direct source instead of scattered notes. It helps organize abdominal surgery topics in a practical way, making revision easier before written exams, oral discussions, OSCE stations, and hospital-based clinical exposure.
