Now in its Second Edition, The ABSITE Review is one of the most popular study guides for the American Board of Surgery In-Training Examination (ABSITE), which residents in general surgery must take each year and residents going into surgical subspecialties must take during the year of their general surgery training. This easy-to-use book presents concise, digestible chunks of information in lists and outlines that facilitate quick memorization. Every component of the exam is covered—basic science and clinical knowledge in all areas tested. This edition incorporates common decision-making algorithms and covers the material that has appeared in the most recent exams.

5.0 out of 5 stars great review book
Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2012

This is a very good review book for general surgery residents looking to do quick review and study for their upcoming in-service exam. It does not contain a lot of detail, but has just enough to (hopefully) jog your memory on a given topic. If you truly need to brush up your knowledge on a topic, you will need a book with more detail. I've found this most useful when you are waiting for the next case in the OR to start, you can pull this from your white coat pocket (yes it fits), and do a quick review.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good format but errors in content
Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2009
Bought it a few days ago and I like the distilled content-type format, but I just read the burns chapter and found some errors or misleading info... E.g. Staph is the most common burn infection, and pseudomonas is only more common with topical ABx; silver sulfadiazine (not silver nitrate) is contraindicated in G6PD-deficient pts, and Stevens-Johnson is not a more severe form of TEN (it's the other way around). I'm a new intern and caught 3 mistakes on my first pass through 4 pages, which does not bode well for the accuracy of this book. Pretty disappointed Steve.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very useful review text
Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2009

Why so small? because it just lists line facts on each topic. Covers all essential topics with good factual knowledge assuming the user has read a more detailed surgical text. It has excellent pictures and serves its purpose very well as an aide memoir. Better that other review texts as it is small and easy to carry around allowing the user preparing for exams to have it all the time

This is a very nice review in a pocket-sized version that allows you to easily carry it around. The style is the same as the earlier edition though this is now in color. It is set up in a bullet-point high-yield style and can be read quickly. Just remember that it is designed for ABSITE review not as the definitive source for anything.

This second edition of the absite review book is even easier to read, with more pertinent diagrams, algorithms and important info for the test. Highly recommended as a principle sourse of review for your absite.

5.0 out of 5 stars the only review for the ABSITE
Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2008

I had the previous version, and bought this one when mine disappeared from a call room. Even better than the first edition. There really isn't anything else available that compares. If you know this material, a good to excellent score should follow.

4.0 out of 5 stars Read the Title
Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2009
As the title indicates, its ABSITE review, that is what this book is written for, rapid review before the exam, not to be a primary source, not for undergraduates, not for those who don't read regularly , i love it, very focused , rapid refreshing review , can be read in 1 week, need to be reread once again, though tiny as regards volume , addresses a lot of the tricky points.
specialty surgery need to be expanded a bit, the font (the text size ) need to be expanded so that you can have a place for add on notes
How to use this book
1- have a good background from one of ur essential books
2- read this book in 1 week.
3- add on ur notes
4- knock the exam

you will be frustrated if u think u can use this book as ur primary source.
