Atlas of Microsurgery of the Lateral Skull Base
Atlas of Microsurgery of the Lateral Skull Base is a practical resource for all clinicians interested in training for lateral skull base surgery. This new atlas of lateral skull base surgery allows readers to become familiar with the delicate lateral skull base, an important part of the body’s neurological system. Featuring step-by step dissection images, this resource is perfect for those studying anatomy of this region. Clinical surgical cases are also presented and discussed for each surgical approach, including relevant clinical and radiological background. Decision-making discussions provided for each clinical case ensure readers will fill any gaps in their neurosurgery training.Table of Contents1. History of Lateral Skull Base 2.
