Laparoscopic surgical techniques are among the most frequently performed operations today. Throughout their short history, they have undergone many modifications, mainly related to miniaturization and the development of computer technology. The rapid development of laparoscopy over the last twenty years has led to changes in the indications, with minimally invasive procedures gradually replacing standard classical procedures.

Laparoscopic surgery offers significant benefits to the patient, but it also increases the demands on the surgical team.

The textbook Graeco-Latin Terminology of Medicine represents a modern didactic resource intended for international students of general and dental medicine. It is based on extensive teaching experience and reflects current requirements of medical education in English. The publication offers a clear and systematic presentation of Graeco-Latin terminology, which forms the foundation of professional medical language. The work is divided into two complementary volumes – a theoretical part (Grammar Reference) and a practical part (Practice and Exercises) – which together form a comprehensive learning system. The first volume provides a systematic explanation of the fundamentals of Latin and Graeco-Latin terminology, including an introduction to its historical development. Emphasis is placed on the gradual acquisition of grammatical concepts in logical sequence and their practical application in medical terminology. The second volume builds on the theoretical knowledge and offers a wide range of exercises, review questions, and revision units that support knowledge consolidation. The textbook reflects the latest nomenclature standards (TA2, ICD-11, TA2023AG, TAH) and presents updated anatomical and clinical terminology. It also includes terminological excursuses explaining the meaning of selected technical terms and so-called double forms. The graphic design, tables, diagrams, and illustrations enhance readability and increase the didactic value of the text. The publication is suitable both as a primary study resource for teaching medical terminology and as a supplementary source for students and educators in the field of medical education.

The presented textbook is intended for students of general medicine and should support their knowledge about indication and interpretation of basic biochemical tests. Clinical biochemistry continues to be one of the most rapidly advancing areas of laboratory medicine, which in line with using of modern technology more and more emphasizes the evidence-based medicine in order to improve diagnosis and monitoring of patients. Selected topics have an ambition to outline and explain the most common issues of biochemical diagnosis of in internal medicine. Individual chapters are devoted to disorders of water, electrolyte and acid-base balance, kidney and liver disease, diabetes mellitus, and biomarkers used in the diagnosis of cardiac necrosis and heart failure. Given the limited range, the textbook merely summarizes the basic knowledge that students have obtained during the study of other subjects, such as medical biochemistry, pathophysiology and internal medicine, and emphasis is given to laboratory diagnosis in accordance with the newer guidelines of professional societies. We hope that the textbook will be helpful in the study of clinical subjects and encourage students' interest in laboratory medicine.
