Description
Skin surgery is a rapidly expanding field, partly due to the current epidemic of skin cancers, and partly due to increased demand in the
population. These developments have meant that a large number of physicians with diverse training are involved in skin surgery, e.g.
general practitioners, dermatologists, general surgeons, ophthalmologists, etc.
This book will guide the reader through most of the
diagnostic or therapeutic excisions of skin in such a way as to provide optimum results for the patients. In addition to a highly didactic
structure which allows a quick review of the special aspects of the anatomical region involved, the book gives an overview of the background
which will help the non-expert reader feel confident about the relevant underlying principles.
Principles and Practice of Skin
Excisions should be of immediate interest to: dermatologists, ophthalmologists, ENT-specialists, general practitioners, and doctors
training in these fields or in surgical specialities.
