This atlas, when originally published in 1992, was the first text to provide a comprehensive approach to microsurgical anatomy and harvesting details from multiple donor sites. The new, second edition of Atlas of Microvascular Surgery: Anatomy and Operative Techniques continues the great tradition of the first text with the latest information on 110 different flap harvesting techniques, including descriptions of 22 recently developed donor sites.
