It enhances understanding through questions and answers, clinical cases, algorithms, and tips and tricks. The questions and answers reflect what is frequently asked in written or clinical examinations of all stripes, making this title a complement tool which allows the readers to check whether the content is being retaining. Divided in sixteen sections, this work encompasses fundamentals concepts, sutures and needles, flaps, grafts, tissue expansion, anesthesia and burns, among other various relevant topics. It also features illustrative pictures, clinical maneuvers, pathognomonic signs and trans operative and postoperative key events. Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Fundamentals - A Case-Based and Comprehensive Review is developed for plastic and reconstructive surgery residents and graduates, general surgeons, dermatologists and medical students interested in the area.
