This book is truly a classic, beloved by plastic surgeons
throughout the world. Its strength lies in its simple, elegant
approach to solving common reconstructive problems encountered by
plastic surgeons at all levels of training. Its appeal transcends
specialty interests, with aesthetic and reconstructive surgeons
alike finding this book to be an invaluable resource for daily
practice. Its comprehensive coverage makes it an essential addition
to any surgeon's library. Totally revised and updated with color
throughout, this new edition has been totally revised and updated
with over 150 additional pages, two new chapters, and numerous new
cases, flaps, and problems. Additionally, there are color
illustrations, summary tables highlighting the best flaps for
various clinical situations, annotated bibliographies, and much,
much more. Throughout these pages, the reader benefits from Dr.
Jackson's enormous experience and wisdom as he makes note of
special tips, critical maneuvers, and important principles that
warrant emphasis. Each flap is accompanied by a description of
potential problems, and each anatomic area for reconstruction ends
with a technique of choice so that the reader can understand the
decision-making process that is involved in flap selection. The
book begins with a chapter on basic principles, which reviews the
important oncologic concerns that must precede any
reconstructive-surgery procedure. Principles of tissue movement and
flap design are accompanied by drawings that aid the reader in
planning. The next seven chapters address each anatomic region.
Alternate methods for closing defects in each region are presented.
Both simple and complex solutions are detailed. Each reconstructive
option is presented in great detail with operative photos as well
as beautiful illustrations to depict flap design, elevation, and
closure, and to more clearly explicate complex flap reconstructions
for difficult problems. Common mistakes and the limitations of each
flap are clearly delineated. Chapters on each anatomic region
conclude with new summary tables that help the reader quickly
identify the best reconstructive options for specific problems. Two
Totally New Chapters The final two chapters are new to this
edition-Tissue Expansion and Problems and Complication. The chapter
on tissue expansion fully details the advantages to be gained from

neck when local flaps are planned. The Problems and Complications
chapter covers common problems encountered in head and neck
reconstruction as well as avoidance and treatment of complications
should they occur. It concludes with a section on tricks and
innovations, which discusses diverse topics such as the use of
scarlet red for wound healing, the aesthetic repair of torn
earlobes, and the repair of cocaine-induced palatal fistula. There
is clearly a wealth of information and much to be learned and
applied by surgeons at all levels of expertise.
