BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Wound Management and Reconstruction
This manual is useful for all veterinary surgeons presented with a challenging wound. It provides information in a readily accessible manner on wound management and dressings of open wounds. The chapter on tension-relieving techniques is applicable to the management of small wounds treated in everyday practice, as well as larger wounds treated less often or on a more specialist basis. The understanding of local subdermal plexus flaps, axial pattern flaps and muscle flaps is enhanced with step-by-step descriptions of the surgical techniques, featuring specially commissioned full-colour illustrations. It is particularly important for veterinary surgeons not only to consider potential complications before treatment but also, importantly, to recognize when they occur and to provide appropriate management. Similarly, there are some specific wounds, such as axillary wounds or burns, that may require a different approach to management, such as omentalization, and these are also covered in detail. The international authors have used their many years of experience and expertise in wound management and reconstruction to produce a truly practical manual.
