Approaches to Surgical Wound, Laceration, and Cosmetic Repair
By Jonathan Kantor
1st Edition
Presents the building blocks of suturing and wound repair in
an at-a-glance, economical atlas format. In its pages, the author shares
his vast expertise and it is his intention to help physicians across
many specialties to improve outcomes for patients requiring repair of
any wound. Starting with chapters on principles of wound management and
wound repair, the atlas then moves on to equipment, positioning, and
other key principles. The next section covers 75 suture techniques,
providing detailed step-by-step instructions adjacent to drawings and
photos of the techniques. Finally, the last section covers each area of
anatomy, guiding you in what suture to use when, how to modify certain
sutures in specific locations, and even how to prepare and execute skin
grafts.
Atlas of Suturing Techniques: Approaches to Surgical Wound, Laceration, and Wound Repair goes
beyond the scope of other texts, which often limit their focus to
either general operative principles or the specific use of flaps in
particular reconstructive areas, such as facial and nasal
reconstruction. While these texts provide insufficient coverage of
actual suture placement techniques, this one-stop resource excels at
providing a clear, easy-to-follow atlas of suturing―one that enables you
to prevent scars and other negative patient outcomes.
Unfortunately,
even the best designed repair can be undone by less-than-optimal
suturing techniques.- Reviews the fundamental principles of suturing and wound repair in an accessible, affordable Atlas format
