Learn how key structures of classical architecture impact surgical
anatomy, preoperative planning, and operative repair of CMF
fractures, leading to improved outcomes. Buttresses are the basis
for reduction and repair of craniomaxillofacial fractures and are
essential for determining the optimal location, for placement of
reparative plates and screws. Craniomaxillofacial Buttresses:
Anatomy and Operative Repair endorses surgical anatomy as a basis
for operative intervention. Special Features: "Buttresses" is the
first book to coalesce the expertise of the five specialties
involved in craniomaxillofacial (CMF) reconstruction after trauma -
plastic surgery, oculoplastic surgery, otolaryngology-head and neck
surgery, ophthalmology, and neurosurgery. Parallels between
architecture and CMF anatomy; basic biomechanics; and advanced
finite analysis depict the distribution of impact (load-forces
to-and-from the craniofacial skeleton) and the modern principles of
operative repair A recurring, two-part format provides continuity,
from chapter to chapter. Part 1 identifies the anatomy of a
specific CMF region; Part 2 serially depicts clinical presentation,
radiographic evaluation, modern techniques of operative repair, and
potential collateral damage. Algorithms and illustrations, by
renowned artist William Winn, reinforce a logical sequence of
clinical management. Compelling preoperative, intra-operative, and
postoperative photographs and supplemental text illustrate
exemplary repair. Key References for repair of each anatomic region
are especially helpful, when managing complex injuries; Additional
Biography allows the reader to efficiently delve further, in select
cases. From the frontal boss to the lower jaw, this book is
one-of-a-kind and brings together history, applied surgical
anatomy, and operative techniques in the CMF region, in a way not
seen since the classic by Reed O. Dingman and Paul Natvig, in 1964.
An educational reference for medical students, residents, fellows,
and clinicians, Craniomaxillofacial Buttresses: Anatomy and
Operative Repair simplifies board review-and-study. From the
foreword I by Robert M. Goldwyn, MD: [The text is] "gracefully
written" every word has been chosen carefully. Seldom is a reader
fortunate enough to find and learn from a book so much, so
effortlessly." From the foreword II by Paul M. Manson, MD: "There
are no facial fracture texts in any of the five specialties that
deal with facial injury in this amount of detail; nor do they cover
all of the craniofacial areas of modern interest, as does this
text."
