Recenzje

"We recommend that anesthesiologists caring for inguinal hernia patients read this book and use it as a reference. Giampiero Campanelli is arguably the world's foremost inguinal hernia surgeon, and his perspective on evidencebased approaches to the operation will give anesthesiologists the profound insight needed for well-informed discussions with the surgical team, resulting in improved outcomes for our shared patients." (Verena K. Stauffer, Markus M. Luedi and Richard P. Dutton, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 125 (1), July, 2017)
