Step-by-step handbook on carrying out all the core procedures in plastic surgery (sDOPS), with an illustrated photographic step-by-step guide to each procedure

Written in a unique high-yield visual format, Index Procedures in Plastic Surgery provides instruction on how to carry out all the core procedures in plastic surgery (sDOPS), the robust new training framework set out by the Intercollegiate Surgical Curriculum Programme. In this book, readers will find helpful step-by-step illustrated intraoperative photos, supported by line diagrams to cover the important steps of procedures included on the ISCP website.

Written by a Professor of Plastic Surgery, a national Program Director with experience of plastic surgery training throughout Europe, Australasia and North America, and several senior plastic surgical trainees, Core Procedures in Plastic Surgery includes information on: - Administering local anesthetics including ring blocks, wound debridement, and excision and direct suture of skin lesions
- Harvesting split- and full-thickness grafts, using Z-plasty, assessing body surface area of burns/scalds, and implementing IV resuscitation
- Performing nail bed repair, digital terminalisation, repair of the digital nerve, extensor and flexor tendon repair, flexor sheath washouts, trigger digit releases, and excisions of ganglion
- Taking skin grafts with air dermatomes and hand knives, meshing skin grafts, and patient followup up with longer-term management

Index Procedures in Plastic Surgery is an essential reference on the subject for both trainees and trainers alike. Surgical researchers, medical students, general practitioners, and specialist nurses and professionals from specialties allied to plastic surgery will also find value in this text.
