For more than 30 years, Current Surgical Therapy has been the go-to resource for both residents and practitioners for expert advice on today's best treatment and management options for general surgery. The 12th Edition, by Drs. John L. Cameron and Andrew M. Cameron, remains the ideal reference for written, oral, and recertifying board study, as well as for everyday clinical practice. Twelve brand-new chapters and many new contributing authors keep you up to date with recent changes in this fast-moving field, helping you achieve better outcomes and ensure faster recovery times for your patients.
Andrew M. Cameron, MD, PhD, MBA currently serves as the William Stewart Halsted surgeon-in-chief of Johns Hopkins Medicine and the director of the Department of Surgery at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Within these roles, he directs all surgical subspecialties in the Department of Surgery and leads the abdominal transplant team. As a Professor of Surgery, he has an active surgical practice in treating alcohol associated liver disease and hepatocellular cancer at The Johns Hopkins Hospital and maintains an NIH-funded research laboratory studying severe alcoholic hepatitis, as well as efforts to increase organ donation using social media and xenotransplantation.
Dr. Cameron was born at The Johns Hopkins Hospital and raised in Baltimore. He received his bachelor's degree from Harvard College and went on to earn his medical degree from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. During this time, he also received his PhD from the Department of Neuroscience at Johns Hopkins University. He then completed his general surgical training at the Massachusetts General Hospital and his transplant surgery fellowship at UCLA. Upon completion of his training, he returned to Johns Hopkins in 2006 and is now leading the Department of Surgery as the director and surgeon-in-chief.
Dr. Cameron is a leading authority in the field of liver transplantation and alcoholic hepatitis. His scientific interests focus on improving access to and outcomes after organ transplantation for those with end-stage liver and kidney disease. He has initiated novel efforts utilizing social media, leading to a significant increase of awareness of organ donation online and most recently has led the effort at Johns Hopkins to explore the use of genetically modified animal organs as a solution to the organ crisis. He is a member of multiple professional societies, including the American Surgical Association, the Society of Clinical Surgeons, the Southern Surgical Association, and the Halsted Society, to name a few. Dr. Cameron serves as a member on the National Advisory Council on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NCAA) and has authored over 150 scientific articles and book chapters.
