“This book could be used as a supplement by already practicing head and neck reconstruction surgeons. … The book briefly reviews types of reconstruction based on subsite (e.g. pharyngoesophageal, nasal, mandible, etc.) and showcases many interesting cases of patients who underwent complex reconstructions.” (Jennifer Best, Doody's Book Reviews, May 10, 2019)

This work presents a clear approach for the reconstruction of head and neck cancer excision defects. Starting with a brief historical account of head and neck reconstruction, the principles of resection and reconstruction of head and neck cancer, the book then provides a detailed overview of head and neck reconstruction based on head and neck subsites; various reconstruction techniques; best approaches; and the challenges faced in reconstruction and how to overcome them. Lastly, it discusses future directions in head and neck reconstruction.
