N1  - Previously published as 3rd ed.,in 2013;  Has Bibliographic details and references; These early chapters focus on evaluation, planning and cosmetic breast procedures:

Preoperative assessment & planning – patient selection, history, risk factors.

Current status of breast implants – implant types, materials, considerations.

Primary breast augmentation with implants – operative approach and indications.

Autologous fat transfer for breast augmentation – principles and application.

Composite breast augmentation – implants with fat grafting.

Augmentation mastopexy – combined lift and enlargement.

Mastopexy with suture threads – minimally invasive lift techniques.

Dermal suspension mastopexy after weight loss – special considerations post-massive weight loss.

Prevention/management of complications – strategies for common aesthetic issues.

Reduction mammaplasty with short scar techniques – breast reduction options.

Reduction mammaplasty with inverted T techniques – traditional reduction methods.

Complications & Special Conditions

These chapters cover evolving concerns and safety:
12. Breast implant illness: diagnosis and management – recognition & treatment.
13. Breast Implant Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) – diagnosis & care.
14. Irrigation solutions in breast surgery – evidence-based analysis.
15. Imaging & surveillance in patients with implants – radiological follow-up.
16. Breast implant explantation – when and how to remove implants.
17. Gynecomastia management strategies – male breast reduction.
18. Gender affirmation breast surgery options – approaches in transgender care.

Reconstructive Breast Surgery

The latter portion (present in some comprehensive tables of contents tied to this volume) moves into reconstruction after cancer or defect:
19. Preoperative planning for post-mastectomy reconstruction – surgical preparation.
20. Mastectomy strategies – partial and total techniques.
21. Perfusion assessment after mastectomy – ensuring flap viability.
22–26. Prosthetic reconstruction – one- and two-stage techniques, planes of placement.
27–29. Complications & refinement procedures – addressing issues after prosthetic reconstruction.
30–44. Autologous reconstruction & flap techniques – TRAM, DIEP, SIEA, gluteal/thigh/lumbar flaps, hybrid techniques, innervation, stacked flaps, and complication management.
45–54. Advanced reconstructive topics – ERAS protocols, oncoplastic strategies (reduction/mastopexy flaps), lymphedema management, radiation considerations, robotic assistance, EVE (external vacuum expansion) & fat transfer, and nipple reconstruction
N2  - This volume provides a comprehensive and practical reference on breast surgery within the field of plastic and reconstructive surgery. It covers the full spectrum of breast procedures, including aesthetic breast surgery such as augmentation, mastopexy, reduction, fat grafting, and revision operations, as well as reconstructive breast surgery following mastectomy and other breast defects. Emphasis is placed on patient evaluation, operative planning, surgical anatomy, technique selection, and management of complications. The text integrates evidence-based practice with step-by-step procedural guidance and is supported by extensive clinical photography, illustrations, and multimedia resources. It serves as a detailed learning and clinical resource for plastic surgery trainees and practicing surgeons seeking updated approaches to both cosmetic and reconstructive breast surgery
