Neuroendovascular and neurointerventional therapy is a specialty where disseminating personal knowledge and expert opinion is extremely important, owing to the lack of large-scale clinical trials. The management of complications that occur during or immediately after therapeutic interventions is particularly challenging because these can significantly affect patient outcomes. This book presents how various complication scenarios are handled by well-qualified authorities in the field of neurointervention from three disciplines: neurology, neurosurgery, and neuroradiology. Contributors describe their management of these complications, focusing on the common principles that all the specialists agree on, and give tips and tricks for 'bailout' procedures to help get the practitioner out of trouble. The book is well illustrated and covers the full range of neuroendovascular and neurointerventional procedures. The book will appeal to neurointerventionists, neuroradiologists, stroke physicians, neurosurgeons and vascular surgeons for its practical approach to managing these commonly encountered problems.

Every year, half a million people who are interested in improving the appearance of their noses seek consultation with facial plastic surgeons. Some are unhappy with the noses they were born with, and some with the way aging has changed their nose. For others, an injury may have distorted the nose, or the goal may be improved breathing. But one fact is clear: Nothing has a greater impact on how a person looks than the size and shape of the nose. Because the nose is the most defining characteristic of the face, even a slight alteration can greatly improve one's appearance. The definition of rhinoplasty is, literally, reshaping the nose. The etymology of the English word of rhinoplasty is derived from the greek prefix rhino meaning nose, and plasty defined as a surgical procedure for the repair or restoration of a body part. If you have wondered how nose surgery, or rhinoplasty, could improve your looks, self-confidence, or health, you need to know how rhinoplasty is performed and what you can expect. No book can allay all your concerns, but this one can provide answers for many of the questions you may have. Successful facial plastic surgery is a result of good rapport between patient and surgeon. Trust, based on realistic expectations and exacting medical expertise, develops in the consulting stages before surgery. Your surgeon can answer, and should be willing to, specific questions about your unique needs. Brenton B. Koch, MD, FACS, is a double board certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon.

As a plastic surgeon, I have spent countless hours speaking to women about the various pros and cons of cosmetic breast surgery, the different options available and the right procedure to obtain the results desired. Just as every patient and every breast is different from the next, the proper procedure will likely be different as well. It has, for many years, been my pleasure to experience the look of joy on a woman's face when the right procedure and the right implant come together to create the perfect look for her. While I can't condense all of the experience and knowledge I have culled over the years into a book of this size, what I do hope is that many of the questions you have about your upcoming cosmetic breast surgery will be answered in a way that you find valuable.

This is an inspiring book which contains a compilation of women's stories who have triumphed though a diagnosis of breast cancer and who have had breast reconstruction. Their beautiful results are depicted in photos taken by Scott Walz. The book was written to raise awareness of the importance of breast reconstruction in breast cancer patients. The "Pearls" section describes how and why different methods of breast reconstruction are used to reconstruct an aesthetically pleasing breast with minimal downtime.

If your practice isn't as busy as it should be, if your phone isn't ringing enough, or not at all, if you're losing too much business to your competitors, if you get too many tire-kickers in your office, if you don't enjoy selling, or if you simply want more, then it will pay to read this book. Nick Dumitru has been helping practices surpass their competition for well over a decade. And his advice starts with one simple concept. Growing a practice is formulaic. It's simple and works every time -- provided you have a proven formula. This book is about that proven practice growth formula.

Being in the field of medicine and plastic surgery, I have realised just having knowledge and skills are not enough to be a successful plastic surgeon; you need to be a general surgeon, a doctor, and most importantly, a compassionate human being to be successful. You also need to be a good administrator, leader, businessman, and politician. You need to be a good teacher to continue the legacy. This is what I am striving to accomplish. My wish is that I will be able to follow my profession with dignity, sincerity, ethically and legally, and to teach the youngsters to do the same. This book is about a great discipline that is called plastic surgery. It is an intensely personal subject that causes a great deal of debate, often very emotional. More than any other branch of medicine, it is also surrounded by a dense, almost impenetrable fog of rumor, myths, and misconceptions. This book will educate you to understand what goes behind the scene. Not only that, but everything you need to know about the plastic and cosmetic surgery from choosing the right surgeon to avoiding disasters and getting the treatment you really need is here in the book.

The increasing multicultural population in the US and the world is reflected in the patient population that most Facial Plastic Surgeons are seeing in their practice environments. Facial plastic surgery procedures and aesthetic goals had been based predominantly on European Caucasian models of anatomy and cultural influences/ Currently, a wide variety of racial, ethnic and cultural backgrounds are included in most facial plastic surgery practice experiences. A recognition and sensitivity to those differences and influences should be part of a modern facial plastic surgeon's skill set. With an understanding of the tremendous clinical relevance of multicultural aesthetics, this issue of Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics addresses Anatomy, Aesthetic goals, Patient evaluation, and Surgical techniques according to various ethnic, racial, and cultural needs. Some of the topics presented are Considerations in non-Caucasian facelift procedures; Scar variations by skin type; Laser and face peel procedures in non-Caucasians; Rhinoplasty in the Mestizo nose; Rhinoplasty in the African-American nose; Rhinoplasty in the Asian nose; Facial aesthetic surgical goals in patients of different cultures; and Concepts of beauty in a multicultural world.
