Excerpt from Text-Book of Operative Surgery, Vol. 1 of 2 No apology is needed for the endeavour to render more accessible to the profession in this country a work on operative surgery by so eminent an authority as Professor Kocher. The book is essentially a record of the author's personal experience and of his own methods of operation. To avoid an appearance of egotism he has written in the first person plural, and this plan has been followed in the translation. The first English edition, which appeared in 1895, was translated from the second German edition, while the second English edition, which was twice the size of its predecessor, was translated from the fourth German edition. The present volume is a translation of the fifth and latest German edition. The amount of new material that has been added, the rearrangement and revision of the text, and the great number of new illustrations introduced have been responsible for an increase of 300 pages. The work now covers the whole field of operative surgery. In the first of the five parts into which the volume is divided, the preparation of the patient, the disinfection of the surgeon and his assistants, the methods of sterilisation, surgical technique, treatment of wounds and anæsthesia have been greatly amplified, local and regional anæsthesia being dealt with at length. In the second part the surgery of the vascular system has been systematically considered, no less than 106 operations on the arteries being described, while the suture of veins receives full attention. The third part, dealing with the surgery of the nervous system, has been rearranged as well as largely amplified. The portion devoted to the operations on the brain and cranial nerves has been practically rewritten, and full acknowledgment is given to the work of the present-day neurologists, especially in connection with the removal of tumours and of the Gasserian ganglion.

The second edition of Operative Plastic Surgery is a fully-updated, comprehensive text that discusses the most common plastic surgery procedures in great detail. It covers the classic techniques in plastic surgery, as well as the most recent technical advances, while maintaining a systematic approach to patient care within each chapter. Traversing the entirety of the human body, each chapter addresses assessment of defects, preoperative factors, pathology, trauma, operative indications and procedure, and more. Also covered is the operative room setup, with special consideration given to the operative plan, patient positioning and markings, and technique for each type of surgery. Detailing over 90 specific surgical techniques, this book covers both reconstructive and aesthetic plastic surgery. A new section addresses non-invasive techniques such as Botox, injectables, lasers, and skincare. New chapters throughout the book also include ALT flaps, nasal cleft deformities, ZMC fractures, augmentation mastoplexy, body contouring for the massive weight loss patient, and endoscopic carpal tunnel repair. Led by Gregory R.D. Evans, this volume assembles thought leaders in plastic surgery to present operative surgery in a clear, didactic, and comprehensive manner, and lays the groundwork for ideas that we have just scratched the surface of, such as translational research, fat grafting, stem cells, and tissue engineering.
