Editorial Reviews

Reviewer: Rodrigo Bayon, MD (Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine)
Description: This collection of short chapters is designed to help minimize complications during head and neck surgery. It covers a broad range of topics, providing tips on improving outcomes of surgery.
Purpose: According to the author, the main objective is to provide information on how to manage specific diagnostic and therapeutic situations in head and neck surgery. The objectives are clearly met, with world experts in their respective fields contributing to each chapter. While most head and neck surgical atlases touch on these situations, few target them and so concisely provide tips on improving surgical outcomes while minimizing complications.
Audience: Written for head and neck surgeons, this book is useful for both those in training and practicing. Each chapter is authored by a wide array of international experts in the field.
Features: The book provides practical tips for the management of a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic situations, including pearls on the workup, surgical technique, and reconstruction of head and neck tumors. However, it is not limited to cancer, also addressing management of head and neck infections. The succinct chapters, which are easy to peruse, are the best feature. The book, however, would benefit from illustrations in certain circumstances.
Assessment: Few books in the field provide such a concise, yet useful, contribution to the field of head and neck surgery.
