Reconstructive Surgery: Principles, Anatomy, & Technique 
By Stephen J. Mathes, M.D., Foad Nahai, M.D.
This beautifully illustrated 2-volume clinical reference fully documents the three approaches to reconstructive surgery - flaps, microsurgery, and tissue expansion - as they apply to the entire body. The authors present the reconstructive triangle - a new paradigm for surgical decision making to help the surgeon achieve optimal reconstructive results. With more than 2,000 full-color illustrations, Reconstructive Surgery explores the various reconstructive options, including muscle and musculocutaneous flaps, fascia and fasciocutaneous flaps, free flaps, and tissue expansion. Anatomical dissections with accompanying illustrations are used throughout to facilitate understanding of each operation.
Published 1997, 2 volumes, 1600 pages, 3000 illustrations.

Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery Journal
"In my opinion, [this book] should be essential reading for all serious students of reconstructive surgery. It would also serve as an excellent reference text for medical libraries and professional offices. By any standard, Reconstructive Surgery: Principles, Anatomy, and Technique represents the epitome of current surgical knowledge on the basics of reconstructive surgery from the perspective of the wound and the flap. As suggested by Dr. Seymour I. Schwartz in his Foreword, 'Drs. Mathes and Nahai ... provide a text that evokes the adjective "classic."' To this endorsement, I offer my whole-hearted concurrence."
