Techniques in Ophthalmic Plastic Surgery : A Personal Tutorial
Por Jeffrey A. Nerad
"The book begins with an introduction to surgical technique. Being well prepared before entering the operating room is key to your results and efficiency. You will find that your preparedness will give you the respect and ready help of all the OR staff. The second chapter is surgical anatomy. I have tried to keep the anatomy very practical and have placed clinical examples throughout. These first two chapters are important — be ready to read them more than once. Your success as a surgeon is based on your expert technical manipulation of normal and abnormal anatomy. My goal is that these chapters will start you on your way to understand and perfect your operative technique.
The remaining chapters are topic oriented: ectropion, entropion, ptosis, and the like. All chapters begin with an outline of what is covered, followed by a formal introduction to the chapter topic. We move through a review of pertinent anatomy, principles of evaluation and treatment, and finally surgical techniques with practical tips. The chapters are written in a hierarchal fashion that should make it easy to get the basics and then dive more deeply into details on a second read. Each chapter has a large amount of redundancy — this is intentional. Look at the summary boxes and use the checkpoints to make sure you actually remember what you just read. You will find over 500 diagrams and a similar number of photographs to help you understand and put the principles into practice. Check out the suggested reading list for another point of view. There are many good texts out."
