How these questions are written

Each question is original and written by Dr. Mohammed Maree. The answers follow current international guidelines and landmark trials, and each one is checked against a standard surgical self-assessment text before it is published. The references under every explanation link to the source so you can read it yourself.

Guidelines change and local practice differs. Use the questions to learn the reasoning, and follow your own hospital’s protocols on the ward. Found a mistake? Tell me.
