Overview
This book provides a focused description of the major local, regional, and free flaps used in head and neck reconstruction. It functions as a single source of information on options available to the head and neck reconstructive surgeon. The book is divided into two parts, with Part 1 focusing on local and regional flaps and Part 2 focusing on free flaps. This allows readers to quickly and efficiently review information on these reconstructive options. Additionally, the book describes the operative procedure and steps of the harvest, as well as provides descriptive images. Each section will include bullets on indications, anatomy, contraindications, modifications, pre and postoperative care, and operative procedures with tips and pearls. Local, Regional, and Free Flaps for Head and Neck Reconstruction will be invaluable to medical students, residents, and fellows in training. Additionally, it will provide condensed information for attendings that span multiple disciplines of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Plastic Surgery, and Oromaxillofacial Surgery.
