Unique atlas on the market that covers both surgical management of breast diseases and cosmetic reconstruction
International technical standard set by the world’s best surgeons
Abundantly illustrated

In recent years, there have been several important developments
in the surgical management of breast
diseases. We have witnessed the emergence of new
techniques for tumor resection, reconstructive surgery,
lymph node assessment, and cosmetic surgery,
to name a few. Lately, the management of breast diseases
has received considerable attention in the lay
media, and patients today are not only demanding effective
surgical treatments, but good cosmetic results
as well. Thus, perhaps more than any other field,
breast surgery has evolved into both a surgical science
and an art. This atlas describes various surgical
techniques for treating diseases of the breast, incorporating
both the science and the art of this unique
field.
This atlas provides a transatlantic perspective.The
authors are from the United States, Germany, and Italy,
and have a special interest in the treatment of
breast diseases. Surgical techniques from both sides
of the Atlantic are described, and this should appeal
to readers who want to broaden their surgical repertoire.
The management of both malignant and benign
diseases of the breast is outlined, with illustrations
to highlight key aspects of surgical techniques.
Particular emphasis is placed on techniques that provide
good cosmetic outcomes.
The completion of this atlas has required the collaborative
effort of many individuals.We are particularly
indebted to the editorial staff of the Springer-
Verlag publishing company for their expert assistance
and guidance.We wish to especially thank Ms.
Stephanie Benko and Ms. Gabriele Schroeder of the
Springer-Verlag office in Heidelberg, Germany, for
their support in this endeavor and also Mrs. Sarah
Price for the copy-editing. For the excellent illustrations
and good cooperation we thank the artist Hans
Jörg Schütze, Cologne, Germany. We sincerely hope
that surgeons and surgically experienced gynecologists
will find this atlas a valuable aid in the management
of diseases of the breast.
