PLASTIC SURGERY: Principles and Practice of Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Plastic Surgery: Principles and Practice of Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery is a definitive, evidence-based reference covering the full breadth of modern plastic, reconstructive, aesthetic, microsurgical, craniofacial, hand, breast, burn, and reconstructive surgery.

Designed for plastic surgeons, surgical trainees, residents, medical students, and multidisciplinary specialists, this textbook provides a structured, clinically focused synthesis of surgical anatomy, operative techniques, reconstructive algorithms, and modern evidence-based practice.

This authoritative volume integrates core surgical science with real-world operative decision-making, offering a complete framework for both foundational learning and advanced surgical practice. It bridges the gap between anatomy, physiology, and operative execution, making it an essential reference for both training and clinical application.

The book begins with fundamental principles of wound healing, skin biology, and surgical anatomy, progressing through flap design, microsurgery, and reconstructive ladders. It advances into subspecialty domains including craniofacial surgery, cleft lip and palate repair, hand and upper limb reconstruction, breast reconstruction and oncoplastic surgery, burn management, lymphatic surgery, and lower limb reconstruction.

A major emphasis is placed on microsurgical techniques, perforator flaps, nerve repair, lymphatic reconstruction, and free tissue transfer, reflecting contemporary global standards in reconstructive surgery.

The aesthetic surgery sections provide detailed, anatomy-based guidance on facial rejuvenation, rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, otoplasty, breast aesthetics, body contouring, and genital aesthetic surgery, ensuring a balanced integration of reconstructive and cosmetic principles.

Specialized chapters cover orthognathic surgery, trauma reconstruction, skin cancer reconstruction, pediatric congenital anomalies, and emerging technologies such as AI, robotic surgery, and 3D printing in plastic surgery.

Each section is structured to support clinical decision-making, operative planning, and surgical precision, making this textbook suitable for exam preparation, fellowship training, and daily surgical reference.

Written in a clear, systematic, and highly structured format, this book reflects the modern evolution of plastic surgery as a multidisciplinary, technology-driven, and outcome-focused specialty.
