This full-color atlas presents an in-depth pictorial display of cutaneous surgery designed for all those interested in improving their surgical skills, from students and residents to experienced surgeons across a wide range of medical specialties. It provides step-by-step instructions through a series of more than 400 detailed color photographs, including supplementary illustrations demonstrating appropriate techniques. The excisions and resulting defects featured within, although primarily centered around the head and neck, cover a variety of locations. The repairs vary in type and size in order to provide multiple options in reconstruction. The chapters are separated into anatomic regions such as the eyelid, the ear, and the scalp, allowing the reader easy access to specific anatomic defects. This atlas is the culmination of the years of experience gained by the authors in the surgical management of skin cancers.

'This will be a valuable tool for junior doctors looking to work in the field of plastic surgery … the images used are clear and well organised with before, during and post surgery covered … I think it will be a very good teaching and learning tool for both experienced and novice practitioners …'
