From the reviews: "This useful book outlines the common complications that can occur in cutaneous surgery. This information can be found in other books, but not in such a focused and concentrated style. The audience includes surgeons from residents to experienced practitioners. ... This book is great - useful, complete, and discussing a topic not well covered in the literature. It should be required reading for all residents expecting to practice cutaneous surgery." (Jon C Starr, Doody,s Review Service, May 2008) "...a must-read for clinicians setting up a clinical practice, especially a general dermatology practice incorporating dermatologic surgery." (Cory A. Dunnick and Robert P. Dellavalle, JAMA, July 2008) "The multiauthored book is nearly evenly divided into sections on acute surgical complications ... . There is an extensive discussion of wound problems from dehiscence to hypertrophic scars and keloids. ... Overall, this is a unique and valuable text. The multiauthored format includes many prominent dermatologic surgeons from around the United States. ... I believe this is a textbook that should be read by every dermatologic surgeon." (Dermatologic Surgery Journal, Vol. 35 (5), 2009)
