This richly illustrated atlas, compiled by authors with extensive experience in the field, offers a step-by-step guide
to the surgical treatment of tumors, and congenital diseases of the skull base and nasal sinuses. Particular attention
is devoted to the various techniques employed for extirpation of tumors and reconstruction of the skull base and
Paranasal Sinuses. In order to facilitate understanding of the different approaches, clear surgical illustrations are
presented alongside the high-quality intraoperative photographs. Whenever appropriate, technical tips are provided and
briefly discussed. This atlas will appeal to a broad audience of residents, fellows, and consultants in different
fields of medicine, including surgeons (head and neck, neurosurgery, otolaryngology, plastic and reconstructive
surgery, ophthalmology, maxillofacial surgery) and oncologists.
