    Summary: This book comprehensively educates psychiatrists about malpractice and other liability. It is written to also specifically assist psychiatrists who are sued or are involved in other complaints. The first two sections discuss malpractice law and the litigation process; the litigation section mainly addresses some of the more emotionally charged issues, including do's and don'ts, how an attorney will be looking at the case, the defendant doctor's testifying at deposition and trial, and the stress of being sued. The subsequent three sections address specific topics that give rise to liability, with each section taking a different perspective such as risks in particular clinical, by practice site, and special issues, including practice in special situations such as the current pandemic. The final section discusses other forms of liability, such as complaints to medical boards or professional association ethics committees. An exceptional work, Malpractice and Liability in Psychiatry, functions as both a go-to handbook and all-encompassing read on the aforementioned topics.

    The authors used injected anatomical specimens to analyse the cutaneous vascular distribution of the cervical and cervicodorsal regions. The arrangement of the arterial network does not make it possible to define flaps with a vascular pedicle. Only the jugular vein may be used as the axis for such a flap. The most valuable flaps, in everyday practice, are transverse flaps, a vertical flap pediculated on the external jugular and the cervicodorsal flap used without autonomisation. The combined musculocutaneous flap, including the sternocleidomastoid, is used in the treatment of extensive loss of laterofacial substance.
