This accessible text covers the scope and limitations of complex reconstructive surgery that few Plastic Surgeons master. It portrays both the technical challenges of advanced reconstructive microsurgery and the human connection between physician and patient as only a master surgeon can convey.
This book discusses the scope and limitations of complex reconstructive surgery that few Plastic Surgeons master, and that the public rarely encounters, portraying both the technical challenges of advanced reconstructive microsurgery and the human connection between physician and patient as only a master surgeon can convey.

For decades, Dr. Deleyiannis has practiced one of the most demanding fields of surgery, treating patients with highly complex and devastating deformities from cancer, trauma, and birth anomalies. Laying the historical foundation of scientific discoveries upon which modern microsurgical practice is based, he takes us “behind the scenes” with real patients’ stories, highlighting surgical innovation in his own career and the impact on the lives of those he treats.

Plastic surgeons and surgeons specialising in reconstruction techniques for patients who have suffered either trauma or cancer will find inspiration and renewed dedication for their specialism within the pages of this book.

Dr Deleyiannis is a board-certified surgeon in both Plastic Surgery and Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery. He is graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, Yale School of Medicine, and the University of Cambridge, England. His practice for over 20 years has focused on providing the clinical care, leadership, and education to treat the most complex reconstructive cases after cancer and trauma. He is the author or co-author of over 100 published peer-review articles and book chapters in major medical journals and textbooks. Previously, he was an Associate Professor at the University of Pittsburgh and Professor of Surgery at the University of Colorado. Presently, he is the Medical Practice Leader of Plastic Surgery and Director of Microvascular Surgery for UCHealth in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
