Summary:

With a large number of clinical photographs, this atlas assists surgeons in selecting an appropriate flap for a given defect. It begins with a section on repairs organized by location on the body. Rather than an exhaustive list of all flaps ever used, the book focuses on the ones the authors have successfully used on a routine basis. The second section contains repairs organized by flap type and the third section contains clinical photographs of suboptimal results with a discussion of what may have gone wrong and what could have been done differently to obtain a better result.

Contents:

1. Repairs by location

2. Repairs by flaps

3. Suboptimal results : avoiding complications
