Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive review of reconstructive microsurgery with an emphasis on the recipient vasculature. Chapters describe the anatomy, exposure, and technical considerations of recipient vessels in reconstructive microsurgery. The book strives to fill that void of literature covering recipient vessels and their surgical exposure for microvascular anastomosis. Alongside nuanced description for each particular body structure, the chapters will provide illustrations and short video clips on how to prepare these essential vessels. The book is the accumulation of the editors’ many years of experience in Asia, Europe, and the United States and also features contributions from world experts. Recipient Vessels in Reconstructive Microsurgery -- Anatomy and Technical Considerations is a must-have resource for trainees and residents as well as surgeons working in plastic surgery and microsurgery.
