Fasciocutaneous flaps are one of the mainstays of plastic surgery practice as they are used to repair defects in an adjacent or distant part of the body. This volume is a practical guide to the use of reconstructive skin flaps throughout the body. Each chapter follows a similar format and details regional anatomy, local blood supply, specific examples of major recognized flaps including evaluation method, and clinical history.
