The intended audience is reconstructive breast surgeons. Each chapter begins with key points. Topics are succinctly presented in a manner that is easy to comprehend. The authors first offer a historical perspective on breast implant placement. The subsequent chapters then discuss acellular dermal matrix incorporation; guiding principles in mastectomy and nipple sparing techniques along with optimal placement of the incisions for these procedures. A chapter on assessing tissue viability is followed by a discussion of various prepectoral implant approaches and accompanying ancillary procedures that have been found to be beneficial for the reconstructive breast surgery patient. These procedures include: breast reconstruction with and without acellular dermal matrix; data that corroborates that prepectoral placement is optimal; fat grafting; patient selection and the use of this modality in the high body mass index individual; timing for reconstruction with consideration of radiation, tissue expansion, conversion of implants to another plane; and complications and postoperative considerations, along with cancer surveillance unique to the prepectoral placement of implants. The last chapter highlights the economic rationale for this technique. The authors present a sound alternative for breast reconstruction which may shift surgeons from the reconstructive techniques they have previously employed." Weighted Numerical Score: 80 - 3 Stars

Manchester University Press The Malleable Body: Surgeons, Artisans, and
Book SynopsisThis book uses amputation and prostheses to tell a new story about medicine and embodied knowledge-making in early modern Europe. It draws on the writings of craft surgeons and learned physicians to follow the heated debates that arose from changing practices of removing limbs, uncovering tense moments in which decisions to operate were made. Importantly, it teases out surgeons’ ideas about the body embedded in their technical instructions. This unique study also explores the material culture of mechanical hands that amputees commissioned locksmiths, clockmakers, and other artisans to create, revealing their roles in developing a new prosthetic technology. Over two centuries of surgical and artisanal interventions emerged a growing perception, fundamental to biomedicine today, that humans could alter the body — that it was malleable.Table of ContentsIntroduction1 Writing the craft of surgery2 Communities face the cold fire3 Visions of the body4 After the operation5 Mechanical hands6 Prosthetic technology on the moveEpilogueIndex

Plural Publishing Inc Facial Paralysis: A Comprehensive Rehabilitative
Book SynopsisFacial Paralysis: A Comprehensive Rehabilitative Approach provides a thorough review of facial plastic surgery techniques utilized in various subspecialties. Through contributions from a range of experts - facial plastic surgeons to head and neck oncologic reconstructive surgeons - this text addresses ways to evaluate all aspects of facial nerve paralysis: diagnosis, individual etiology and management, surgical procedures, as well as preferred reconstructive modalities. Also included are full color images that demonstrate the surgical techniques used to repair or ameliorate the effects of the paralysis. Spanning several surgical subspecialties, Facial Paralysis: A Comprehensive Rehabilitative Approach is a one-stop resource for any surgeon performing facial plastic surgery.Trade Review"I confess that I start most reviews of any textbook by just flicking through it and scanning the pictures. The quality of the images immediately impressed me here. Despite a multi-author input, these are consistently relevant, they have much novelty and they are reproduced to a very high standard. I keep going back to Fig 5.2 which shows a facial neuroma, before and after mastoid-approach excision. Nice photography here. There are many views of the nerve in various degrees of separation or grafting, in the parotid and, again, the clarity of the illustrations is remarkable. For once, we are largely spared those black boxes over the eyes which can ruin such textbooks... Every such book starts with the basic science, but even that shows novelty here. How many of us can associate the various facial reflexes with their respective brainstem pathways? Did you know that the facial nerve fibres occupy as much as 83% of the cross sectional area at the meatal foramen of the internal canal, but only 23% in the tympanic and 64% in the mastoid segments? The second chapter looks at various aetiologies, but gives a nice brief overview of electrophysiologic testing. Under complications of facial paralysis, we will all think about the cornea, but may overlook epiphora, nasal valve collapse and synkinesis... Now, the rest of the book is what makes for a unique piece of work. It is a surgical manual, covering every procedure imaginable, in restoration of the paralysed face. There are chapters on Nerve repair, on grafting, management of the upper and then lower eyelid, the lips, the nasal valve. A final (and really clever) additional chapter drifts off subject, into correction or avoidance of that soft tissue defect, the hollow so prevalent after parotidectomy. Fig 13.2 is described as showing "an acceptable" cosmetic result. Well, let's say that the scar is just visible and most of us would be pleased with this outcome. There are several books currently in print on facial palsy. This is particularly good at showing the role of the cosmetic and reconstructive surgeon in restoration of function, or at least, cosmesis. An inspiring book and an excellent read." -Liam Flood, The Journal of Laryngology and Otology (November 2014)Table of Contents*Introduction *Acknowledgments *Contributors *Chapter 1: Facial Nerve Anatomy and Mastoid Surgery in the Management of Facial Nerve Disorders *Chapter 2: Facial Nerve Paresis and Paralysis: History, Etiology, and Testing *Chapter 3: Complications of Facial Paralysis *Chapter 4: Medical Management of Facial Paralysis *Chapter 5: Management of the Facial Nerve *Chapter 6: Nerve Substitutions in Facial Reconstruction *Chapter 7: Management of the Paralyzed Brow *Chapter 8: Management of the Upper Eyelid Complex *Chapter 9: Management of The Lower Eyelid *Chapter 10: Management of the Nasal Valve *Chapter 11: Management of the Midface and Lips in the Paralyzed Face *Chapter 12: Facial Reanimation with Free Tissue Transfer *Chapter 13: Management of the Soft Tissue Defect Following Parotidectomy *Index

Plural Publishing Inc Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery:
Book SynopsisFacial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery: Clinical Reference Guide is a portable reference guide that fills the void of an easy to read, concise, but comprehensive book encompassing all aspects of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, both in the clinical setting as well as in preparing for board exams. Each chapter follows a uniform outline to facilitate quick review of a topic, and the comprehensive nature of each chapter provides the depth required for written and oral standardized tests. Chapters incorporate authors from all specialties -- Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, General Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Oculoplastic Surgery, and Dermatology -- as well as encompass all aspects of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, from cosmetic to reconstructive to craniofacial.Formatted like the bestselling "Pasha" (Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery) pocket guide, this text provides a condensed amount of high-yield information with a multidisciplinary approach to bring a broader range of insight into complex clinical challenges.Combining key insights from senior and junior authors, each chapter provides a unique perspective on the relevant information needed by those getting themselves established within the field.Trade ReviewThis book is an excellent pocket guide encompassing a wide range of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. It is formatted in a very similar way to the well-known "Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery" by Pasha. The book is organised into major sections of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, encompassing reconstructive, cosmetic and craniofacial areas. Each chapter, which is co-written by a senior and junior author, provides concise and comprehensive information in an easy-to-read manner. The rhinoplasty, otoplasty, facial defect reconstruction and skin cancer sections are an excellent resource material in terms of succinct and concise information for trainees, particularly those preparing for the FRCS(ORL-HNS) exam and also the European Board Exam in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. This book is an excellent reference pocket guide for trainees and, indeed, established specialists. I have not come across a similar book for facial plastic surgery, which makes it stand out in the market. It is also an excellent revision resource for exams. In summary, this clinical reference guide is an excellent, up-to-date and good value book which I would highly recommend to anyone interested in facial and reconstructive surgery.--Aftab Ahmed, Consultant ENT and Facial Plastic Surgeon, Doncaster Royal Infirmary, UK in ENT and Audiology News, Sept/Oct 2017Table of ContentsForeword.

Thieme Medical Publishers Inc Aesthetic Breast Surgery: Concepts & Techniques
Book SynopsisFilled with take-away messages and valuable insights, Aesthetic Breast Surgery by Elizabeth Hall-Findlay, MD, is a masterful text that you will refer to time and again. It presents a personal and time-proven approach to all forms of aesthetic breast surgery. This book is a distillation of the author's extensive experience and provides her unique perspective on problem-solving and patient analysis. Dr. Hall-Findlay has spent years measuring and studying patient results to help other surgeons use "science" to improve the "art" of aesthetic breast surgery. She has developed an approach to analysis and surgery which is simple and consistent-with results that can be achieved by all surgeons. Prepare Yourself for a Master Class in Aesthetic Breast Surgery With personal insights and wisdom pervading every page, this book provides the reader with a master class in aesthetic breast surgery by one of the world's leading experts. Dr. Hall-Findlay is widely known for her popularization of the medial pedicle approach to vertical breast reduction and this is covered in depth. However, her accomplishments in breast surgery extend far beyond this technique. Her ongoing innovations continue to advance the field. In this semi-atlas work, she brings her considerable expertise to bear on the range of aesthetic breast surgery procedures as she describes her individual approach to patient evaluation, operative planning, clinical decision-making, and operative technique. Comprehensive Coverage Divided into nine comprehensive chapters, the book begins with key chapters on analysis, concepts, applied anatomy, and patient selection that lay the foundation for the technical descriptions that follow. These introductory chapters are not to be missed. They offer a unique approach to patient assessment and alert the reader to critical anatomic landmarks that strongly influence the success of operative procedures. Concepts such as the breast footprint (high-breasted and low-breasted patients) are examined to help readers understand the realistic possibilities for what can and cannot be achieved when planning breast surgery. The emphasis is on the decision-making process involved in choosing the right approach for each patient and then planning the procedure with these landmarks in mind. The next seven chapters are devoted to operative technique. A consistent format is used in each chapter with detailed information on patient evaluation, planning, technique, revisions, complications, and outcomes. These pages are liberally illustrated with step-by-step descriptions depicting breast augmentation, vertical breast reduction with the medial pedicle, liposuction-only breast reduction, mastopexy, mastopexy/augmentation, and surgery for breast asymmetries. Information on avoidance and treatment of problems and complications is also highlighted throughout the book. Of particular note is the comprehensive information on nipple necrosis in the reduction chapter; this provides essential information to help surgeons who are faced with decreased blood supply to the nipple. Beautifully Illustrated Beautiful and dramatic color illustrations and numerous preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative images help the reader visualize the steps of each procedure and appreciate the excellent long-term results that can be achieved. Unique Features Throughout the technique chapters, artwork icons are paired with photographic images to better elucidate the surgical technique being described. Key points are highlighted, and a summary box outlining central issues concludes each chapter. Two DVDs contain operative video to complement the text.Table of ContentsContents PART I Concepts and Principles 1 Breast Analysis and Clinical Concepts 2 Applied Anatomy: Key Concepts for Modern Breast Surgery 3 Surgical Principles 4 Patient Selection, Education, and Surgical Decision Making PART II Technique 5 Breast Augmentation 6 Vertical Breast Reduction 7 Liposuction-Only Breast Reduction 8 Breast Re-reduction 9 Mastopexy 10 Mastopexy-Augmentation 11 Nipple Necrosis 12 Breast Asymmetry Index Video Contents Breast Augmentation Video A-1: Preoperative markings for subglandular breast augmentation Video A-2: Intraoperative review of markings for subglandular breastaugmentation Video A-3: Infiltration for subglandular breast augmentation Video A-4: Pocket dissection for subglandular breast augmentation Video A-5: Implant insertion for subglandular breast augmentation Video A-6: Incision closure for subglandular breast augmentation Video A-7: Wrap-up for subglandular breast augmentation Video B-1: Preoperative markings for subpectoral breast augmentation Video B-2: Intraoperative review of markings for subpectoral breast augmentation Video B-3: Infiltration for subpectoral breast augmentation Video B-4: Pocket dissection for subpectoral breast augmentation Video B-5: Implant insertion for subpectoral breast augmentation Video B-6: Incision closure for subpectoral breast augmentation Video B-7: Wrap-up for subpectoral breast augmentation Vertical Breast Reduction Preoperative markings Intraoperative review of markings Infiltration Pedicle creation Parenchymal resection Pillar closure Closure of dermis Liposuction for contouring Skin closure Wrap-up Breast Re-reduction Video A: Re-reduction of previous vertical breast reduction Video B: Re-reduction of previous inverted-T breast reduction Mastopexy Preoperative markings Intraoperative review of markings Infiltration Deepithelialization Creation of inferior wedge Elevation of pectoralis strip Closure of pillars Closure of dermis Skin closure Wrap-up Mastopexy-Augmentation Preoperative markings Intraoperative review of markings Infiltration Pedicle creation Inferior wedge excision Subpectoral pocket dissection Pillar closure Skin closure Wrap-up

Thieme Medical Publishers Inc Facial Topography: Clinical Anatomy of the Face
Book SynopsisThe difference in the shapes of facial structures and their relationship to one another determines the unique and distinct appearance of each individual. This anatomic information is critical to diagnosing changes in facial topography that occur with age and in determining the best approach for augmenting and rejuvenating the aging face. Facial Topography: Clinical Anatomy of the Face provides a critical roadmap for navigating the underlying anatomy of the face. It is the first work of its type that uses cadaver dissections paired with detailed medical illustrations to depict the soft tissue surface landmarks of the face-shapes, contours, creases, and lines. This beautifully illustrated semi-atlas is packed with clinical information to help improve surgical outcomes. The book places particular emphasis on describing surface landmarks to help predict the location of deeper structures. This knowledge increases the safety of any facial procedure, because the surgeon knows the course and location of blood vessels, muscles, and nerves. The book includes advice on determining the best placement of injectables to achieve a predictable and aesthetic result and to avoid complications, and also helps surgeons understand the ideal placement of fillers for facial augmentation. In addition, the basic dissections provide essential information for all residents and practitioners operating in the face. Anatomic tenets are described that can be applied to any anatomic region and key clinical points are highlighted throughout. A supplemental DVD includes video demonstrations of dissections and other clinical applications in each anatomic area of the face.Table of Contents1 Terminology of Facial Topography 2 The Central Forehead 3 The Cheek 4 The Eyelids 5 The Nose 6 The Temporal Fossa 7 The Periauricular Region 8 The Lips and Chin

Thieme Medical Publishers Inc The Angiosome Concept and Tissue Transfer
Book SynopsisAt last, G. Ian Taylor has written his master work! This amazing book provides the background and the thought processes that led to the angiosome concept, its clinical impact, and the legacy it has left for the benefit of patients and surgeons. The concept is an interpretation of the vascular anatomy of the body as the basis for tissue transfer and the explanation of various pathological processes. Part history, part anatomical atlas, and part clinical application, this major reconstructive work is a virtual treasure trove of important historical, anatomical, and clinical pearls from one of the true masters of reconstructive surgery. In this landmark publication, Dr. Ian Taylor provides readers with a unique perspective on the evolution of reconstructive surgery and the developments that have shaped its path. The book begins with a review of the various surgeons and anatomists whose works heralded the anatomical renaissance of the 1970s and helped crystallize the Angiosome Concept that Taylor and Palmer published in 1987. This initial chapter includes "the journey" of clinical and research events that led to this concept and its legacy. In each case, a unique clinical problem is solved by entering the anatomical dissecting room to design an operation that is customized to the patient's individual needs. In many cases, this original work introduced new surgical procedures to the surgeon's armamentarium, including the "free flap," "the free vascularized bone flap," "the free vascularized nerve flap," and various combinations of tissues for transfer including skin, muscle, tendon, and bone. It has also helped to explain the basis for various pathological processes such as flap tip necrosis, tendon rupture and the ulceration that may be associated with varicose veins and meningococcal septicaemia. The second chapter provides an in-depth explanation of the angiosome concept with its arterial and venous counterparts, embryological, neurovascular, lymphatic, and comparative anatomy studies. The third chapter outlines the various anatomical concepts that have evolved from this study of the angiosomes with their legacy-the basis for the design of various tissues for transfer. It includes: analysis of the "delay phenomenon"; the anatomical and clinical territories of skin perforator flaps; and personal experience with various tissue transfers, including breast reduction and reconstruction, vascularized bone repair of head, neck, and limb defects, and the free vascularized transfer of nerve, tendon, and muscle. The chapter also discusses the impact of the recently developed technique of CT angiography on preoperative planning. The last four chapters focus on the regional angiosomes of the head and neck, torso, upper limb, and lower extremity with their clinical applications. Two DVDs supplement the book and contain key papers and films produced by the author and colleagues.
