Abstract

Plastic surgery has been defined as a field that involves the study of the skin and its contents (E.E. Peacock, Jr., personal communication). Although this description may seem overly broad, it accurately reflects the variety of patients and problems managed by plastic surgeons. Unlike pediatrics or orthopaedics, plastic surgery is not a field defined by patient age or anatomy. Instead, it is a field characterized by a method of managing problems. The name of the specialty, plastic surgery, derives from the Greek word, plastikos, which means ‘to change or mold.’ The theme of changing or molding is the common thread that binds the often diverse problems managed by plastic surgeons. The defects and abnormalities treated by plastic surgeons include congenital problems, traumatic injuries, skin cancers, defects created in the management of oncological problems, hand abnormalities, chronic wounds, and problems due to aging. In managing all these problems, the purpose of plastic surgery is to change or mold to restore form and function.
