Gazi Yasargil: A microsurgical legacy beyond neurosurgery
The recent passing of Dr. Gazi Yasargil, widely regarded as the father of modern microneurosurgery, represents a profound loss for all surgical disciplines influenced by microsurgical innovation. Yasargil’s groundbreaking introduction of the surgical microscope and development of specialized instruments, including the Leyla retractor and Yasargil aneurysm clip, revolutionized operative precision and safety far beyond neurosurgery. His meticulous techniques and visionary approach laid the essential groundwork for modern plastic and reconstructive microsurgery, enabling advances in free tissue transfer, nerve coaptation, and complex reconstructions. More than a technical pioneer, Yasargil was a dedicated teacher whose influence endures through thousands of surgeons trained under his mentorship. As beneficiaries of his innovations, the plastic surgery community joins the broader surgical world in honoring his unparalleled legacy, which continues to shape the art and science of microsurgery across specialties.
期刊介绍:
JPRAS An International Journal of Surgical Reconstruction is one of the world''s leading international journals, covering all the reconstructive and aesthetic aspects of plastic surgery.
The journal presents the latest surgical procedures with audit and outcome studies of new and established techniques in plastic surgery including: cleft lip and palate and other heads and neck surgery, hand surgery, lower limb trauma, burns, skin cancer, breast surgery and aesthetic surgery.
