Surgery of the Breast : Principles and Art Hardback

This heavily illustrated two-volume atlas is the most comprehensive "how-to" reference on surgery of the breast.

The world's leading surgeons describe and demonstrate the most advanced and successful techniques for all types of general surgery, aesthetic, and reconstructive procedures-oncologic management of breast disease, breast reconstruction, reduction mammoplasty and mastopexy, and augmentation mammoplasty.

The text is illustrated throughout with over 4,100 drawings and full-color preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative photographs.

Editorial comments at the end of each chapter provide an alternative perspective and address current controversies. This thoroughly updated Third Edition features a greatly expanded section on augmentation mammoplasty.

Other new chapters cover deep inferior epigastric perforator flap breast reconstruction, skin preserving delayed breast reconstruction, and nipple-sparing mastectomy.

Coverage also includes new information on managing oncoplastic surgery, surveillance following breast reconstruction, reconstruction following tumor recurrence, and the role of stem cells.
