Book Description
This atlas provides all the basic and advanced information required by surgeons in order to understand fully the skull base anatomy. It is organized according to anatomo-surgical pathways to the hidden areas of the skull base. These pathways are described in step-by-step fashion with the aid of a wealth of color images and illustrations. The emphasis is on endoscopic anatomy, but in order to provide a holistic perspective, informative three-dimensional reconstructions are presented alongside the endoscopic images and radiologic images are included when appropriate. In effect, windows are opened on the anatomy so that the reader is guided on a journey throughout the skull base region. This anatomically oriented atlas will serve as an ideal learning tool for novice surgeons and will also prove an invaluable reference for the more experienced surgeon
Editorial Reviews
Review
From the book reviews:
“This is a comprehensive atlas of the internal carotid artery, both intraoperatively and postmortem, outlining the branches of the ICA in full color. … This is best suited for neurosurgeons, fellows, and graduate residents in neurosurgery.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, March, 2015)
“This atlas provides unparalleled illustrations of all segments of the internal carotid artery from a skull base surgeon’s perspective. … It is most suitable for fellows and attendings in skull base surgery, especially those with experience in endoscopic and microscopic skull base surgery. … Rhinologists would find it valuable as they tend to avoid the internal carotid artery during training as otolaryngologists. … This is the only book solely dedicated to this topic that I have encountered.” (Opeyemi Daramola, Doody’s Book Reviews, October, 2013)
