PREFACE
                                                                                   Preface










             Apologies for missing an issue.  We are seriously engaged with heavy

             clinical commitments, as well as dealing with the MBBS final examination
             and the very successful online international meeting, Aortic Asia.  Hope-

             fully we are collecting meaningful clinical cases and images to make up
             for the loss.



             We are also transferring more detailed, sometimes with voice annotation,
             of clinical and operating theatre videos to a Video Library which can be

             assessed from the Department of Surgery website.  This can be a valuable
             supplement to the already very limited operating theatre exposure for
             our medical students.
