Plastic Surgery: Indications, Operations, and Outcomes (5-Volume Set)

Rating:
Summary: A basic, yet helpful text.
Review: An excellent reference for first year residents in plastic surgery, or other surgical residents who want to explore the fascinating world of plastic surgery. The third "great compilation" of the plastic surgery knowledge, who substitutes McCarthy's text ,yet McCarthy's is quite more extensive, but a little out time (1990). This could be any plastic surgeon's pillow book...

Summary: i wish it were better
Review: the other residents in my program are a lot more critical of this text than i. i agree that it is very inconsistent. some chapters good, some very poor. all do not give a good idea of "outcomes", part of the intent and title of the text. it is mostly a " this is how i do it as i am famous" read. however, i must be fair and admit this is probably the most complete recent text on comprehensive plastic surgery. i do not regret buying it.
