Welcome

Welcome to the Practical Plastic Surgery Web site.

Many patients with commonly encountered injuries and wounds could benefit from treatment by a plastic surgeon. However, due to a paucity of these specialists in rural areas and in the developing world, many patients do not have access to their expertise.

The intent of this web site is to bring straightforward plastic surgery information and techniques to health care providers working in areas with limited access to plastic surgeons. The goal is to hasten recovery, prevent long-term disability, and obtain the best possible outcome for patients.

Health Care providers should use this web site as a resource for practical plastic surgical information and techniques. You do not need access to high tech equipment or advanced surgical skills to benefit from this site.

The centerpiece of this website is the book Practical Plastic Surgery for Nonsurgeons.  The entire book is available here in .pdf formatting.  Also on this website is a “Case Presentations” area, other useful information booklets, as well as links to other sites promoting international health. 

Please feel free to contact us with any questions or suggestions.  This website is a work-in-progress, so topics can be added based on your feedback.

 


Case Presentations

Every few months a new case will be presented and discussed.
