It is written in a Single Best Answer and Extended Matching Item/Question format, with detailed explanation for all answers. Although it is tailored towards preparing plastic surgical trainees in the UK prepare for their Intercollegiate exit exam - FRCS(Plast) - it will also be useful for junior plastic surgeons appearing for the American Board exams, EBOPRAS, RACS (Australia) and MCh (India).

With over 350 questions, both in SBA and EMI/EMQ formats, this book is intended to be a valuable companion for all plastic surgical trainees appearing for their postgraduate exams.
