Riassunto:

Minimal Access Skull Base Surgery – Open and Endoscopic Assisted Approaches is a highly illustrated guide to a range of approaches in ENT surgery, edited by Kofi Boahene and Alfredo Quiñones-Hinojosa from the John Hopkins Medical Institute, Baltimore, USA. The book focuses on minimal access approaches to skull base compartments using an endoscope, via natural and secondary openings into the head.

Comprised of 31 chapters, across seven sections, the book begins with a general introductory section which covers imaging of the skull base, surgical pathology of the skull base and anaesthetic requirements for skull base surgery. Further sections cover approaches to surgery via particular anatomical areas, including transorbital, supraorbital, transnasal, infratemporal fossa, and transoral approaches. The concluding sections cover the management of selected skull base lesions, skull base reconstruction and postoperative management.

Minimal Access Skull Base Surgery – Open and Endoscopic Assisted Approaches is enhanced by 428 images and illustrations and an accompanying DVD featuring practical guidance on several procedures. This is an essential resource for neurosurgeons, otolaryngologists, head and neck surgeons, and any health care providers involved in these minimal access procedures.
