Description

Plastic Surgery, A Problem Based Approach provides a problem-based approach to solutions for common scenarios in plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery and serves as a practical guide to managing a plastic surgical case. This book outlines a pathway through management for the clinician, consisting of six phases: 1) Recognition of the condition: facilitated by high quality images. 2) General approach: provided by an opening “mindset” statement for the particular case. 3) Assessment: the critical aspects of the history and examination. 4) Treatment: key decisions and key interventions. 5) Management: post-intervention expectations. 6) Evidence: the rationale behind the preceding treatment and an overview of any controversies. Plastic Surgery, A Problem Based Approach is a valuable reference tool for surgical trainees, medical students, healthcare professionals and plastic and reconstructive surgeons.
