Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery provides plastic surgeons and reconstructive specialists with a comprehensive, technique-focused guide to aesthetic and reconstructive procedures. This authoritative text covers the complete spectrum of plastic surgery from craniofacial reconstruction to body contouring and microsurgical tissue transfer.

Each chapter integrates surgical anatomy with step-by-step technique descriptions, patient selection criteria, and complication management. Detailed coverage includes rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, facelift surgery, breast reconstruction and augmentation, abdominoplasty, and hand surgery. The text emphasizes preoperative planning, intraoperative decision-making, and postoperative care protocols.

Special sections address microsurgical techniques including free flap reconstruction, burn surgery and wound healing, cleft lip and palate repair, and gender-affirming surgery. The book also covers non-surgical aesthetic procedures including injectables, laser therapy, and skin rejuvenation techniques.

With contributions from internationally recognized plastic surgeons and reconstructive microsurgeons, this work serves as an essential reference for plastic surgery residents, fellows, attending surgeons, and allied professionals involved in aesthetic and reconstructive care.
