"Raising of Microvascular Flaps" provides all those dealing with microsurgical tissue transfer, i.e. plastic surgeons, ENT surgeons, trauma surgeons, and oral and maxillofacial surgeons with all they need to know in their daily practice. The systematic approach of this operative manual is based on photographs of perfect quality showing cadaver preparations, alongside with explanatory colour drawings to even enhance the understanding of the anatomy through 3D perspectives and by also showing structures that are hidden in preparation. Safe and reliable operative techniques are clearly shown step by step on the DVD that goes along with the book. For each step individual risks and mistakes are emphasized. A clear didactic structure and perfect artwork supply the surgeon with invaluable guidelines for his daily work. Focusing on comprehensive, precise and teaching information, this text atlas is highly instructive.

Review

From the reviews:

"???Raising Microvascular Flaps, A Systematic Approach??? will be an invaluable tool for both the experienced and budding microsurgeon performing free tissue transfer regardless of the surgical subspecialty. ??? Further, the authors provide an excellent, thorough and systematic detailed approach to raising various indispensable, yet technique-dependant flaps. ??? ???Raising Microvascular Flaps, A Systematic Approach??? is an excellent operative manual and should be an asset to the armamentarium of all reconstructive plastic surgeons ??? ."

About the Author

Klaus-Dietrich Wolff has been Professor and Head of the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery, Klinikum rechts der Isar, Technische Universit�t M�nchen (TUM), Munich, Germany, since 2007. After studying medicine and dentistry at FU Berlin, Professor Wolff completed his PhD in both subjects in 1987 and acquired his postdoctoral teaching qualification (habilitation) in 1994. Subsequently he was appointed adjunct professor at FU Berlin in 1999. This was followed by a position at Ruhr University Bochum, where he held the Chair of Oral Surgery and Plastic Facial Surgery from 2000 to 2007 and the post of medical director from 2004 to 2007. He moved to TUM in 2007. Professor Wolff researches in the area of plastic reconstructive facial surgery with the aim of improving the microsurgical transfer of tissue through a better understanding of the construction, physiology, and healing of tissue transplants. He is working on an extracorporal perfusion system intended to expand the scope of reconstruction even in the most difficult situations; moreover, he developed the national guidelines for the treatment of oral cavity carcinoma. He has been a recipient of the Martin Wassmund Award from the German Society of Maxillofacial Surgery.

Frank H�lzle is Chairman, Full Professor, and Head of the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the University Hospital of RWTH University Aachen, Germany. He was previously Vice Chairman and Assistant Professor at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Klinikum rechts der Isar, Technische Universit�t M�nchen (TUM), and prior to that Vice Chairman at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Plastic Surgery at Ruhr University Bochum, both periods under the leadership of his mentor Professor Klaus-Dietrich Wolff. Professor H�lzle studied medicine and dentistry at the Free University of Berlin, the Humboldt University of Berlin, the University of Glasgow, and University College London Medical School from 1989 to 1998. He was recognized as a medical specialist for oral and maxillofacial surgery in 2002, and in 2005 he achieved additional qualification as a plastic and reconstructive face surgeon. In 2006, he received his venia legendi for oral and maxillofacial surgery and also became a Fellow of the European Board of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons. Professor H�lzle is especially known for his work in the field of plastic facial reconstruction, and in 2007 he received the Martin Wassmund Award from the German Society of Maxillofacial Surgery for his research work on monitoring and improvement of the perfusion of microsurgical flaps and development of retrograde perfusion for perforator flaps in the head and neck.
