This is the third volume in the acclaimed series on head and neck surgical procedures.


Each step-by-step presentation is preceded by a description of indications, diagnostic methods, preoperative procedures, and type of anesthesia. Important modifications and alternative techniques are presented; surgical landmarks and sites where injury could occur are fully detailed. Rules, hints and typical errors are given at the end of each procedure.


Each section closes with a discussion of postoperative care and the functional sequelae of the surgery. The collection, compiled with an acute awareness of the interdisciplinary nature of this area, is invaluable when preparing for surgery.
