PY - 2022 T2 - Zollinger’s Atlas of Surgical Operations, 11e AB - For more than 80 years, this Atlas has defined the scope of general surgery. In the 1930s, the original authors—Cutler and Zollinger—personally did the 64 procedures described in the first edition, but specialty boards were birthing in all areas of medicine and surgery. A generation later when Robert M. Zollinger, Jr., trained at the Brigham & Women’s Hospital in the 1960s, an academic general surgeon was exposed to, and assisted at, all the surgical specialty operations so as to have broad familiarity with the state of what we called “modern” surgical care. It was a time when 85% of surgical residencies were in community hospitals, where general surgeons cared for the majority of patients.
