Description

This practical guide to operative procedures defines the current scope of maxillofacial surgery. It covers all the major operative techniques and procedures recommended for specialist accreditation by postgraduate examinations worldwide. In one volume it provides the maxillofacial trainee with the basic techniques of maxillofacial surgery. It will also be of use to ENT surgeons, neurosurgeons and plastic surgeons who require a working knowledge of these procedures as part of their extended practice.
