Main description:

This book provides a guide to the correction of maxillofacial trauma surgery. Chapters covering the initial considerations, assessment, and techniques required in post-traumatic surgery are included to give the reader an understanding of how and why a particular procedure takes place. The treatment of eye, nose, cheek, ear, jaw, and soft tissue deformities are also discussed.

Atlas of Operative Maxillofacial Trauma Surgery: Post-Traumatic Deformity aims to give a framework to trainee and practising surgeons to help them manage trauma and allow them to assess and treat patients with facial deformities.
