Thieme congratulates Dr. Eric M. Genden on being chosen by New York
magazine for its prestigious 'Best Doctors 2018' list! Head and
Neck Cancer: Management and Reconstruction, 2nd Edition by Eric M.
Genden masterfully blends two lauded Thieme books, Reconstruction
of the Head and Neck, focusing on defect repair, and Head and Neck
Cancer, a multidisciplinary, evidence-based approach to treatment.
A significant increase in the incidence of oropharyngeal cancer in
the U.S. and other countries, especially among men, is attributed
to high-risk subtypes of the human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV
associated tonsillar cancer and base of tongue cancer account for
90% of all oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Internationally
renowned authors share the latest knowledge on HPV and other causes
of head and neck cancers, from diagnosis to cutting-edge
treatments. Thirty richly illustrated chapters feature open and
endoscopic ablative techniques for treating a full spectrum of
carcinomas and associated defects of the buccal, mandible and
composite, laryngeal, hypopharyngeal, and parotid. The book
encompasses the nuances of each pathology, step-by-step procedural
guidance, clinical pearls, and the latest reconstructive techniques
such as 3-D. For each disease, the authors discuss management
concepts followed by principles of reconstruction and functional
rehabilitation. Special topics include patient surveillance,
monoclonal antibodies and immunotherapy, microvascular
reconstruction, and minimizing wound complications. Key Features
