Radical mastectomy is no longer the first recommendation for breast cancer.
Instead, research and experience have shown that other multidisciplinary approaches are now being considered in order to have breast preservation. Each chapter includes an introduction, indications, contraindications, description of the procedure, complications, special cases, and hints and pitfalls. The black and white line drawings are exceptionally clear, providing the surgeon with clear step by step instructions on doing any recommended surgery. The Multidisciplinary Atlas of Breast Surgery is highly recommended for all medical libraries. Inc. All rights reserved.
