Introduction by Ben Eiseman MD, FACS
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery of the Upper Face
Bruno Ristow MD,
Chief, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Division, California Pacific Medical Center, San Francisco, California
01-325
The decade of the 1990s will witness even greater public enthusiasm for aesthetic surgery of the face than previously seen. Several reasons contribute to this increase in number of procedures, among them longevity, better health, nutrition, increased competitiveness in the job market and improvements in general anaesthesia.

Application of the Threedimensional CT Scan to the Reconstruction of Craniofacial Deformities
Bryant A. Toth MD,

New developments in computerised tomography (CT) imaging technology have paralleled advances in craniofacial surgical techniques. The ability to reconstruct congenital, neoplastic, and traumatic deformities is dependent upon good pre-operative assessment. Understanding the spatial relationship of a given deformity is limited with conventional two-dimensional CT scans. A more precise, reproducible portrayal of the craniofacial problem has been' made possible with the development of three-dimensional CT scan capabilities.

Recent Advances in Breast Reconstruction
Neal Handel MD, FACS,
The Breast Center, Van Nuys, California
01-345
The incidence of breast cancer in the United States is high and appears to be increasing. The American cancer Society has estimated that one in nine American women (11 percent) will eventually develop breast carcinoma. Recently there has been a dramatic shift away from mastectomy and toward breast-conserving therapy (Iumpectomy, axillary node dissection and whole breast irradiation). In some centres the majority of breast cancer patients are now treated with conservation therapy. Some patients, however, are not candidates for radiation, because of the size, location or histology of their tumour and are still best treated by mastectomy and reconstruction. Women who develop local recurrence following radiation therapy are likewise candidates for mastectomy with reconstruction. Additionally, there is a large group of women who had mastectomies in years past who have not had reconstruction. Thus many patients may potentially benefit from breast reconstruction.

The replantation of amputated parts has stimulated the imagination of writers since antiquity. It was not until the successful replantation of an arm by Malt and a hand by Chen Chung Wei in 1953 that these fables became reality. The simultaneous development of the field of microsurgery permitting the repair of one millimetre vessels made possible the replantation of structures fed by these small vessels such as fingers, ears, noses, lips, scalps and penises.
