Book Info
University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Practical text on the use of local flaps for the reconstruction of the face, scalp, and neck. For residents and practitioners in surgical disciplines. Halftone illustrations. 39 U.S. contributors. DNLM: Surgical Flaps. Rating 4.0
A must haveThis is an excellent book that all plastic surgeons, Mohs surgeons and dermasurgeons should have. It covers in detail all of the major flaps and the underlying principles. Then it discusses repairs by area (e.g. forehead, nose, lips, cheek, scalp). It is very reasonably priced considering how much information there is here. I can not recommend more strongly. Good but expensiveThe book covers almost all the local flaps for facial recon. It has very little text as compared to a large number of patients' photographs. Its a good book to have for residents but its not priced for the resident! At 25-50 US$ it would have been a must have. But at this price , better get it from the library abd read it over the weekend. |
