Secondary Rhinoplasty: Including Reconstruction of the Nose

Secondary Rhinoplasty begins with the basic anatomy of the nose that often predetermines which technique is possible and which is realistic. Each region of the nose and its particular anatomy is analyzed and explained as a specific unit and as part of the total aspect of management. Reconstruction of the nose, biologic deteriorations, tumors, the effects of aging, and associated congenital abnormalities are also dealt with. Nothing of substance has been left out, and yet the primary value of this text is the presentation of the most optimal surgical methods of correction.

From the reviews of the second edition:

"When Meyer published the first edition of Secondary Rhinoplasties, he presented his lifelong experience in an excellent way. The new second edition includes an additional outstanding chapter on Total Nose (Re)construction in Aplasia. ... the presentation of marvelous color pictures and illustrations contribute to the perfect layout of the book. In my opinion Rodolphe Meyer’s second edition of Secondary Rhinoplasty represents a milestone in plastic surgery publications and should be in the library of everybody interested in rhinoplasty." (E. Biemer, Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Vol. 28 (3), 2004)

"After publication of the first edition, ‘Secondary and Functional Rhinoplasty: The Difficult Nose’ 14 years ago, Rodolphe Meyer has produced an extended second edition with a broad spectrum of new cases and precise illustrations ... . In this beautiful book he again presents his great expertise and fortifies his extraordinary knowledge about the field of rhinoplasty ... . This book should be ‘a must’ to every surgeon ... . The book should be an integral part of the library of anyone who performs rhinoplasty." (R. R. Olbrisch, European Journal of Plastic Surgery, Vol. 27 (2), 2004)

"This, the third book on nasal surgery by Dr. Rodolphe (Rudi) Meyer, is devoted entirely to secondary rhinoplasty. ... The 36 chapters are well written ... . The first 10 chapters are essential reading for anyone performing rhinoplasty whether primary or secondary! ... This excellent text should be in the library of any surgeon ... . On behalf of all of us who will deal with the secondary problems, we applaud Dr. Meyer on this excellent text and thank him for sharing his expertise." (Foad Nahai, Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Vol. 26 (6), 2002)

"This book is the third great volume describing reconstructive and aesthetic surgery of the nose, written by the world-famous Dr. Rodolphe Meyer of Lausanne, Switzerland ... . There are only a few surgeons in the world who can match the skill, imagination, originality, and the wealth of experience of Rodolphe Meyer ... . This present book by Meyer contains so many fascinating case histories and the means by which to treat them that it would be redundant here to discuss any one of them." (Blair O. Rogers, Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Vol. 25 (6), 2001)
