Abstract
In contrast to a recent cartoon from The New Yorker (Figure 14-1), when most surgeons see a patient and make a diagnosis, they do not think about a journal in which a manuscript may be published or even about preparing the manuscript itself. However, the clinical challenge of a particular patient often inspires related research at the laboratory bench or by the design of clinical trials.
