✦ Synopsis

A definitive summary of novel techniques, this 1st volume in the New Technologies Series details the most current and multidisciplinary approach to new technologies used in general plastic, hand, peripheral nerve, microsurgery, breast, esthetic, and trauma surgery and provides an overview of the most important and clinically relevant plastic surgery research. New surgical images of new surgical approaches are all accompanied with anatomical descriptions. In a novel way it contains endoscopic images from minimally invasive procedures and provides the most current overview of the leading trends in plastic surgery research. Presenting newly developing clinically relevant techniques and technologies, this book aims to stimulate the reader to look at future advances and applications of research and their relevance to daily clinical practice. Appropriate for different sub-specialties not only in plastic surgery but also in orthopedics and neurosurgery, this book will also be of great interest to trainee surgeons.
