Beautifully illustrated and comprehensive, this must-have atlas guides
readers through the delicate, high-risk surgical approaches they need to
successfully manage pathology of the temporal bone, the most complex anatomic
area in the human body. Each consistently organized chapter addresses a
different technique, beginning with a clear definition of the approach followed
by a discussion of indications and key information on anatomic orientation,
surgical steps, and, in many cases, surgical anatomy. Clearly labeled,
full-color illustrations accompany step-by-step descriptions of common and
unique operative techniques. The author, a world-renowned otorhinolaryngologist,
provides detailed explanations of important anatomic landmarks and advice on how
to choose the appropriate instruments at each surgical stage.
