Clinical anatomy, points of technique and the fundamental principles relevant to each subject area are explained. Relevant published articles are reviewed and illustrations have been included to reinforce important concepts. The specific focus on the FRCS Plastic Surgery exit examination makes this invaluable reading for examination candidates. This volume offers a factual and diverse overview of the body of knowledge in the specialty and is useful for trainees at all levels.

This book identifies the key scientific articles in the field of Plastic Surgery and explains why these papers are important in contemporary clinical management.The text includes commentaries on landmark papers in a wide range of clinical areas within Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgery.
