Head and Neck Reconstructive Surgery: A Comprehensive Clinical Case Guide

This clinical guide examines the most frequent defects encountered in the surgical treatment of head and neck cancer, presenting real clinical cases throughout. Each chapter focuses on a specific reconstructive technique, covering its principles, applications, advantages, and outcomes, along with follow-up and short- and long-term results.

Coverage spans procedures from the Facial Artery Musculomucosal Flap (FAMM Flap) to the Gastric Pull-Up, including microsurgical and locoregional pedicled flaps. The material is organised around a collection of 108 clinical cases, each accompanied by detailed descriptions, videos, and over 500 original surgical illustrations.

Clinical images and histological diagnoses are highlighted throughout, and the key points to consider when selecting a reconstruction technique are outlined for each case. The guide is intended for head and neck surgeons, plastic surgeons, cancer surgeons, oncologists, and anyone involved in restoring form and function to patients with complex head and neck defects.
