This book discusses the scope and limitations of complex reconstructive surgery that few plastic surgeons master, and that the public rarely encounters, portraying both the technical challenges of advanced reconstructive microsurgery and the human connection between physician and patient as only a master surgeon can convey.

For decades, Dr. Deleyiannis has practiced one of the most demanding fields of surgery, treating patients with highly complex and devastating deformities from cancer, trauma, and birth anomalies. Laying the historical foundation of scientific discoveries upon which modern microsurgical practice is based, he takes us “behind the scenes” with real patients’ stories, highlighting surgical innovation in his own career and the impact on the lives of those he treats.

Plastic surgeons and surgeons specializing in reconstruction techniques for patients who have suffered either trauma or cancer will find inspiration and renewed dedication for their specialty within the pages of this book.
