Highly Commended by the BMA Medical Book Awards for Surgery! Reconstructive surgery of the upper extremity has progressed significantly due to advances in microsurgical techniques, which include the increased popularity of perforator flaps, refinements in functional free muscle transfer, the application of nerve conduits and nerve allografts, motor nerve transfers, and hand transplantation. These innovations have helped surgeons achieve functional reconstruction goals and enabled patients' return to normal functioning earlier than previously possible. Reconstructive Surgery of the Hand and Upper Extremity presents a unique, color-coded roadmap for managing the complex upper extremity patient, based on a logical approach to surgical decision-making. Authors Gunter Germann, Randolph Sherman, and L. Scott Levin deliver seven systematically organized sections and 69 chapters with versatile, evidence-based guidelines and techniques. Strategic approaches and a video chapter covering patient examination reflect the collective wisdom gleaned from the authors' experience in the care of the upper extremity patient. Key Highlights Insightful guidance provided in 115 treatment-specific algorithms Patient histories and photos offer practical clinical information on a full continuum of cases-from gunshot wounds to tumors Over 500 high quality illustrations and graphics, many redrawn for this edition, delineate injuries and reconstruction techniques Richly illustrated atlas of flaps with nearly 140 new color photos details diverse approaches, including pearls and pitfalls Handy tables clearly outline rehabilitation protocols, classification, and zones of injury The text provides an invaluable framework to help both surgical residents and veteran upper extremity surgeons achieve optimal outcomes in their patients.

“Function is the focus of any hand surgery, a frequently performed procedure by reconstructive plastic surgeons. The topics in this volume of Clinics in Plastic Surgery work their way through soft tissue procedures of the fingers and hand through the upper arm. The more common conditions and commonly performed surgeries are presented here along with the more difficult and complicated procedures. Topics include: Current practice of soft tissue repair of fingertip; Microsurgical soft tissue and bone transfers in complex hand trauma; Full cosmetic reconstruction of the digits by composite tissue grafting; Methods, pitfalls, and common mistakes in treatment of fractures in the digits; Venous flap and freesytle free flap in hand surgery; Management of pain in peripheral nerves; Technical difficulties of surgical treatment and salvage of treatment failure in Dupuytren's disease; Surgical treatment of cubital tunnel syndrome; Distal radius fracture: indications, treatment, controversies; Repair, autografts, conduits, and allografts for digital and forearm nerves: current guidelines. Two experts renown in hand surgery lead this issue - Dr Michael Neumeister and Dr Jin Bo Tang.

This book describes essential operative techniques that can be used to anatomically reconstruct the outer female genital in acquired deformities derived from ritual genital mutilation/cutting, and diseases causing similar deforming defects. Following an introduction with general insights on the topic, the main chapters deal with basic considerations and special anatomical information. With the help of high-quality videos and images, the reader receives detailed instructions on clitoral and vulvar reconstruction with techniques invented by the author, named the NMCS-procedure, the OD-flap and the aOAP-flap procedures. The book is rounded out with chapters describing postoperative care and how to manage complications. The integrity of their outer genitals is important for patients’ physical and psychological wellbeing. As such, the vulva is now receiving increasing attention and will likely continue to grow in importance in plastic surgery. The author, who has developed outstanding procedures for vulvar and clitoral reconstruction over the years, shares his considerable experience and hopes to highlight the importance of these methods to overcome the burden of female genital mutilation/cutting.
