Initial sales of the long awaited Portuguese translation of the landmark textbook "Anesthesia in Cosmetic Surgery" by Dr. Barry Friedberg will begin in Brazil in June.

Corona del Mar, CA (PRWEB) May 19, 2009 -- Brazil is the world's undisputed leader in cosmetic surgery procedures. Some of the beautiful bodies adorning the beaches of Ipanema may have been enhanced by Brazilian cosmetic surgeons.

Those surgeons and their anesthesiologists will soon be able to read "Anesthesia in Cosmetic Surgery," the first comprehensive textbook in the field of anesthesia, in their native language, with the book's publication in Portuguese this June.

Initial sales for this long awaited translation of Barry L. Friedberg, MD's landmark textbook, originally published by Cambridge University Press in April 2007, will take place at a dermatologic cosmetic surgery meeting Brazil.

"Anesthesia in Cosmetic Surgery" discusses brain monitored propofol ketamine (PK) anesthesia, a breakthrough technique pioneered by Friedberg, the top international authority on anesthesia for cosmetic surgery.

Propofol is an antioxidant, a sleep drug and powerful anti-nausea drug. Under PK anesthesia, patients wake up refreshed, looking as if they never had surgery. With the book's translation, Portuguese-speaking surgeons and anesthesiologists will be able to learn about and apply this technique to their practices.
