Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: Anatomy, Three-Dimensional Reconstruction, And Surgical Technique - Hardcover
A main problem with endoscopic sinus surgery, warns Wormald (otolaryngology, Adelaide U. and Flinders U. Australia) is that the image the surgeon sees on the screen is two-dimensional, and it is easy to get lost and possibly injure the orbit, its contents, the optic nerve, or the intracranial cavity (the kneecap only in extreme cases). Therefore, his textbook differs from others in concentrating on the anatomy and surgical technique. Most of the surgical techniques he presents are his own, but the majority of them have been scientifically assessed in peer-reviewed journals. The accompanying disk contains a number of examples of different anatomical variations to allow the viewer to attempt three-dimensional reconstruction of the anatomy before it is shown on the video.

About the Author:
Praise for this book:
"This book is an invaluable educational resource for rhinologists not only in training but those well established in practice too. It is one of the few books that I found so well written that I could pick it up and read it with enthusiasm from cover to cover. It is excellent value for money as well as one of the most comprehensive and easy to read sinus surgery texts available. -" - ENT & Audiology News
