Publisher's Synopsis
This comprehensive reference presents the complex surgical approaches to the lateral skull base and temporal bone in a didactic step-by-step manner. The colour photographs, taken during dissection of cadavers, simulate the operative steps in a way that no live photographs can, due to requirements for sterility and speed in the latter.;The book should be a useful tool for both otologissts and neurosurgeons, as well as residents in these fields, wishing to learn these new techniques.
