About this book

A new approach to methodical and strategic thinking about tissue reconstruction. All the decision-making processes are broken down into algorithms based on the authors' clinical experience and the current literature. The atlas section describes the 25 most frequently used flaps, and shows them in standardised graphic form along with many practical tips and tricks. New here is the inclusion in the illustrations of practical suggestions for the surgeon, as well as rehabilitation protocols for post-operative management. In short, the book provides a maximum of information with a minimum of text.
