Foreword

Books addressing the issues of colorectal surgery tend to take a familiar format. Frequently multiauthored, especially for comprehensive presen­tations on current status of the specialty, there are few single authored texts available. As for this book by Mark Killingback, one is not aware of any comparable treatises devoted to colorectal surgery. So what makes this so unique? And what makes the acquisition and reading of this book so desirable? First, a certain amount of historical perspective. Until this time—and one hopes for sometime yet to come—descriptions of findings at operation, and what was done to correct them, have been considerably augmented—and clarified—by schematic diagrams. (The reference to “sometime to come” is based on the emergence of the e­chart and e-operative note which promises to make such documents entirely paperless).
Dr. Killingback throughout his distinguished and prolific career has practiced the habit of schematically representing his operations—after the intervention—usually with captions. It is a practice he taught many of us. This exemplifies the phrase “a picture is worth a thousand words.” However in the course of time, he acquired the skills of an artist and so converted basic line drawings into an art form.
Well, that is nice, you might say. But what does this offer over and above a good photograph of the specimen or of the operative field? This is the distinguishing point. Note how difficult it is to convey the spec­trum of the disease or the extent of the difficulty of an operation or show manifestations of a particular syndrome in a photograph—or even a con­ventional line drawing! How does one adequately convey to the reader, the tapestry, the protean manifestations of Crohn’s disease, for example, in a single drawing? In Dr. Killingback’s imagery, all the features of thick­ened, strictured, obstructive, perforative, fistulizing, and ulcerated intestines are shown in one masterful piece of art. Photographic attempts for similar documentation are fortunate to provide two or three such features.
The experienced surgeon will appreciate this book by recognizing the details and exquisitely rendered images that call to mind similar cases encountered. For the surgeon or trainee relatively new to the specialty of colorectal surgery, the graphic presentation of the surgical pathology, with the accompanying succinct and informative text will make the acquisition of this book a valuable one.

Preface

This book makes no claims to be a textbook of colorectal surgery, as many aspects of this specialty are not included. It is rather a collection of cases illustrating surgical pathology as encountered by a surgeon per­forming operations for colorectal disease. The surgeon is the first, in what may be a succession of medical practitioners, to confront the pathology of the disease “face to face.” It is a unique opportunity to see the pathol­ogy in vivo in its undisturbed state and the interpretation of this mor­phology is usually vital to the operative technique to follow. In 1907 Moynihan of Leeds General Infirmary (UK) wrote on one of his favorite themes “The Pathology of the Living.”1He stressed the value of obser­vations of pathology during abdominal surgery and how this influenced diagnosis and treatment. The title of this book is related to this philos­ophy of surgery proposed by Moynihan. The aim of this work is princi­pally to present illustrations of surgical pathology with artistic merit for surgeons to include in their reference library as a “coffee table book” but the author hopes the art and case history texts will have a significant educational role. Perhaps its main value will be for the younger surgeon who is commencing the journey into unchartered waters of surgical pathology. The author certainly would have valued a forewarning of many of the cases presented in this publication.
Drawing was selected for the illustrations as an art form rather than photography. Illustrative art has the facility to probe into inaccessible areas of the abdomen, to manipulate perspective to include important details, and to emphasise or delete various parts of the subject. Illustra­tion can also combine the internal and external views of a viscus, etc., in the one diagram.
The author has enjoyed a long standing interest in drawing and usually included this aspect in operation report records. The contribu­tion of the medical artist to surgical education was emphasized to the author in 1958–1959 while working as a surgical registrar at the Central Middlesex Hospital London. Ms. Mary Barber was a full-time medical artist employed by the hospital working in a very small cottage in the hospital grounds. With watercolor painting, the artist produced beautiful illustrations of surgical specimens. Most of her work was generated by the senior surgeon, T.G.I. James, who himself had a great interest in recording surgical pathology. The quality of Ms. Barber’s work can be seen in her illustration of bowel affected by necrotising colitis
1). Although this type of artwork has been somewhat overshadowed by color photography, perhaps this book will demonstrate that there is still value in illustrative artwork. The evolution of the illustrations has been presented in three stages. On completion of an operation the author’s practice was to open the specimen and pin the bowel to a corkboard for the pathologist. A rough sketch was made to record details. This sketch formed the basis for an improved diagram for the patient’s record (Figure
2). Such diagrams have then facilitated third illustrations prepared for this book. The author practiced colorectal surgery as a specialty for 26 of the 39 years of operating experience. Patients described in this book were

managed by the author, who performed the surgery on the pathology depicted in all cases, with the exception of: Case 21, lipomatosis-referred after retirement; Case 49, composite diagram; Case 78, desmoid tumour­no operation and Case 79, pneumatosis-no operation. The observations are therefore personal and prospective. The author has maintained his own detailed records of all patients treated, and this has restricted a minimum need for retrospective searching of patient details in hospital records. Follow-up cases were routine in patients with neoplastic disease, but in many cases not requiring follow-up for management. The patients have been located by the author and follow-up details were established by phone. A number of patients underwent related operations by other surgeons either prior to the author’s involvement or subsequently. The stated age of the patient is that at the time of the initial referral.
Many surgeons have an interest in recording operation details by dia­grams which can become invaluable in the management of the patient. Victor Fazio attributes his interest in this method of recording operation details, to his mentor the late Rupert B. Turnbull Jr. who was an enthu­siastic sketcher of what he observed in the operating room. There are a few publications, however, that feature medical artwork by surgeons. Sir Charles Bell (1774–1842), of London, was a surgeon-anatomist and a tal­ented artist who illustrated many texts with neuroanatomical drawings. His famous paintings of war wounds from the Napoleonic wars are now with the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh.3Bateman in his book
