The author emphasizes the close cooperation between U.S. plastic surgeons and the first international journal entirely devoted to plastic surgery, the Revue de Chirurgie Plastique (1931-1934) later to become the Revue de Chirurgie Structive (1935-1938) published under the editorship of Maurice Coelst, M.D. from Brussels. By the accurate recording of original articles, book reviews, proceedings of their annual meetings and summaries in three different languages (English, French, German), the author stresses the intense scientific dynamism and the achievements made by the U.S. pioneers of this new speciality, which really started during World War I.
作者强调了美国整形外科医生与第一本完全致力于整形外科的国际期刊《整形外科学报》（1931 - 1934年）之间的密切合作，该期刊后来更名为《整形与重建外科学报》（1935 - 1938年），由来自布鲁塞尔的医学博士莫里斯·塞尔斯特编辑。通过准确记录原创文章、书评、年会论文集以及三种不同语言（英语、法语、德语）的摘要，作者强调了这一新兴专业在第一次世界大战期间真正起步的美国先驱者们所展现出的强烈科学活力和取得的成就。
