At A Glance
|
The aim of this book is to introduce the clinical applications of various flaps in oncoplastic surgery. After a brief introduction of the background and anatomical basis of breast reconstruction, the book shows surgical reconstruction procedures using different types of flaps, for example, deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap, profunda artery perforator flap and omentum flap. The great number of representative clinical cases together with high quality operative pictures constitute one of the highlights of this book. These pictures provided with details in flap design, elevation, harvest, transfer, and complications management. Furthermore, the use of Indocyanine green angiography and three-dimensional shaping with autologous tissue transplantation is discussed. Written by a group of experienced oncoplastic surgeons, this book offers a valuable reference work for medical researchers and practitioners in microsurgery, plastic and reconstructive surgery.

Description
|
| This book is an exceptional text that seamlessly melds together the extirpative removal of ubiquitous cancers of the breast with that of the art of reconstruction. Using deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap, profunda artery perforator flap, omental free flap, and vascularized free flap , the book illustrates the subtle and meticulous choices and techniques of raising and in setting skin flaps to fill the tissue void left behind from mastectomy defects. |
|
|
Purpose
|
| The aim of this book is to offer multiple free skin flap techniques to offset the defects caused by removal of the breast for cancer and thus make the breast appear aesthetically natural. An integral part of the treatment plan is to reconstruct the breast in a manner that partners science and art. The authors of this text have exceeded their intended purpose. |
|
|
Audience
|
| Experienced and trainee microvascular, plastic, and oncologic surgeons will thoroughly benefit from incorporating the principles from this book into their practice. With extensive institutional tissue flap experience, the authors are credible experts in this field. |
|
|
Features
|
| The book centers around the creativity required to make breasts whole again after their removal due to cancer. Contributing surgeons are well versed in the use of free flap reconstruction. The book starts with historical perspectives con breast reconstruction, including the various shifts and developments that have led to its current state. The book focuses on the use of three major vascularized tissue free flaps: the deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap, profunda artery perforator flap, and omental flap. Meticulously drawn illustrations of each procedure and intra- and post-operative photographs demonstrate each phase of the reconstruction. This visual imagery further highlights the pertinent anatomy along with the sequence of flap elevation and in setting to re-establish the breast contour. Case studies depicting the entirety of care are used throughout the book to illustrate the thought process behind the choice of tissue transfer. |
|
|
Assessment
|
| This book is a most valuable reference and guide for microvascular and plastic surgeons who specialize in free tissue flap reconstruction of the breast or body. The way this book is assembled, the attention to detail, the clear and comprehensive prose, and splendid chapter organization enables those who conduct free tissue breast reconstruction to inculcate these skills into their practice. |
