Why did I decide to write another book on rhinoplasty surgery and is it different? The most fundamental reason is that I am dismayed at how many younger surgeons are electing not to do rhinoplasty surgery due to its perceived complexity. Therefore, I spent the last 3 years trying to simplify the teaching of this surgery. I have designed an approach that will allow surgeons to expand their comfort zone and eventually master rhinoplasty surgery. It should be noted that Mastering Rhinoplasty is a Second Edition in name only. Over 90% of the text and case studies are new, only the basic anatomy and aesthetic drawings remain the same. A few highlights of the book -In Chapter 2, a fundamental rhinoplasty operation is presented which can be expanded in a progressive sequence from easier to more difficult cases allowing the surgeon to do 95% of primary cases, while operating within their comfort zone. At the end of each chapter, there are sections on "decision making" and how to progress from Level 1 to Level 3 cases.Rather than using DVDs to present 2 or 3 cases in depth, the author has integrated 141 live surgery video clips through out the book allowing the reader to learn surgery in the operating room rather than in the library. For each surgical technique there is integrated text, drawings, intraop photos, and live surgery DVD clips to improve learning and to facilitate review the night before surgery.Tip surgery is emphasized throughout the book, especially open tip suture techniques and tip refinement grafts. The operation is shown with each step superbly illustrated. The results are documented in a wide range of patients from thin skin Caucasians to thicker skin Hispanics and anatomically demanding Middle Eastern patients.
