Atlas of Regional and Free Flaps for Head and Neck Reconstruction: Flap Harvest and Insetting

This Atlas depicts clearly the use of regional skin, muscle, and musculocutaneous flaps as well as donor sites from distant regions of the body where vascularized skin, muscle, bone, and nerves can be harvested and transferred to the head and neck. Otolaryngologists, plastic surgeons, and general surgeons use both regional and free flaps to reconstruct damage to the head and neck caused by cancer and trauma. This Atlas provides the surgeon with techniques for mastering different donor sites needed to find solutions to virtually every reconstruction problem. It describes the anatomy and harvesting techniques of the major regional and free-flap donor sites currently employed in head and neck reconstruction.
