Manual of Neonatal Surgical Intensive Care provides practical management recommendations for the pre- and postoperative care of infants with surgical conditions. The book focuses on the nonoperative care of the infant with a surgical condition. This interdisciplinary care requires knowledge that has accumulated over the years, much of which is not recorded. As appropriate, chapters cover the embryology, incidence, prenatal diagnosis (treatment), postnatal presentation, postnatal diagnosis, differential diagnosis, preoperative management, implications for anesthesia, surgical management, postoperative management, and complications/outcomes.
