Eyelid tumors are commonly encountered by oculoplastic as well as
plastic surgeons. The challenge of managing these cases lies not
only in performing the surgery in a precise manner in small area,
but also in ensuring a visually-appealing cosmetic outcome. This
is an innovative and concise portable handbook that guides the
surgeons on how to approach and manage these cases in a
step-by-step manner. Each chapter of this practical guidebook has
outstanding illustrations drawn in full color clearly showing
each incision line, flap management, suture placement and its
technique and the expected cosmetic outcome. When a lid tumor is
excised, there is a tissue defect that needs to be corrected.
Ophthalmologists and plastic surgeons will find this work an
excellent reference material to solve the jigsaw puzzle of tissue
defects in and around the periorbital region. Importantly, they
can quickly refer to the images just before starting a procedure.
The author has first explained the anatomical aspects and
anesthetic techniques for eyelid surgery, followed by review of
the benign and malignant tumors, finally describing the flap
creation and reconstruction techniques that are currently used in
various lid tumors in an organized fashion.
