Volume I of Procedural Dermatology: Postresidency and Fellowship Compendium, edited by esteemed dermatologists David H. Ciocon and Yoon-Soo Cindy Bae, provides a comprehensive review of the latest techniques in surgical reconstruction after Mohs surgery based on the location of the defect. The content reflects years of firsthand expertise from an impressive group of internationally recognized reconstructive surgery experts, who contributed chapters on evidence-based surgical, cosmetic, and laser techniques.
Key features:
