In today’s reconstructive breast surgery, what outcomes are desired by patients and what outcomes are surgically achievable? Using a case study approach, Complex Cases in Breast Reconstruction addresses the complexity of these questions in a practical, highly illustrated, and unique manner. This innovative resource uses a multimedia format to focus not only on the procedure, but on treating the whole patient. Clinical cases are presented in a series of interviews with international experts in reconstructive breast surgery, allowing readers to learn from real-world deliberations and considerations both in print and in video format.
Key Features
- Features guided interviews with global leaders who provide personal guidance and commentary on a particular case in their area of expertise. Video interviews are accompanied by animations designed specifically for that particular case
- Presents each case in a highly templated, problem-based manner
- Covers key topics such as complications and revision surgery, breast aesthetics, failed implant reconstruction, combination flaps, abdominally-based flaps, thigh-based flaps, fat grafting, hybrid reconstruction, nerve preservation, breast pain, and more
- Contains an abundance of photographs, illustrations, and animations that deliver highly visual, expert guidance from the surgeon’s point of view
- An eBook version is included with purchase.
