"Edward Laws and Jason Sheehan have edited the first comprehensive guide to the management of the large varieties of pathologies that arise in the sellar and parasellar area. Over the past two decades change in management practices have been underpinned by a better understanding of the nature of the pathology, improved imaging and a refinement of both surgical and radiation therapy techniques. The location of the sellar and parasellar region has challenged neurosurgeons (and radiotherapists) to develop innovative refined approaches to the region, often using the best of skull base, endoscopic and microsurgical techniques. These have been utilized within the context of an improved understanding of the pathology, with the imperative that the treatment (or therapy) must optimize control of the pathology, whilst minimizing morbidity"--Provided by publisher.

Recent developments in our understanding of the complex anatomy of the cranial base and the biological behaviour of tumours in this area have significantly improved the outcome of patients with skull base tumours. The contributors present a systemic introduction and summary of contemporary knowledge in skull base surgery. The book has three major parts: (i) clinical, pathological and radiological management of patients, (ii) open and endoscopic surgical approaches to the skull base, and (iii) outcome, morbidity and postoperative follow-up of patients. The book is meant for medical students, residents and consultants in various disciplines, including otolaryngology, head and neck surgery, neurosurgery, plastic surgery, maxillofacial surgery and oncology. The emphasis is on the clinical approach to the patient rather than on surgical techniques per se. .

Tout praticien se doit de connaître les fondements scientifiques de sa démarche clinique diagnostique et thérapeutique que cette dernière soit médicale ou chirurgicale. La biologie du développement céphalique constitue pour le praticien de la bouche et du visage un de ces fondements incontournables. Comment se développe notre tête ? Quelles en sont les étapes embryonnaires, ponctuées par l'expression de nombreux gênes morphogènes, qui finissent par contribuer à former notre visage à partir de cinq modules primitifs dont la justification unique est de cerner notre bouche porteuse des oralités alimentaires et verbales ? Telles sont les questions posées et leurs réponses apportées par cet ouvrage condensé dont le but est d'aider le praticien dans sa réflexion devant le patient en lui fournissant des grilles de lecture.

Le livre propose certains modèles théoriques permettant de mieux comprendre l'installation, au cours de la croissance sous le jeu des fonctions, de la délicate architecture crânio-maxillo-faciale, ainsi que la définition, en forme, en volume et en situation dans l'espace, des éléments qui la composent.Chaque atteinte de cet équilibre organise un désordre occlusal, bien particulier, qu'il faut apprendre à reconnaître.Cette découverte de la création des dysmorphies précise les cibles étiologiques et conduit à la mise en place d'une stratégie thérapeutique et raisonnée.La construction d'une occlusion, en accord avec les capacités mécaniques mieux comprises des structures qui portent les arcades, doit assurer un résultat fonctionnel, donc stable.

"Over the past 5 to 10 years, organ preservation techniques using chemoradiotherapy have gained considerable popularity as first-line treatment of head and neck cancer, especially for oropharyngeal, laryngeal, and hypopharyngeal cancer. This trend is now increasing with more intensified chemoradiotherapy treatment modalities and regimens. This means that more and more advanced disease is likely to be treated with chemoradiotherapy as a primary treatment, with increased likelihood of failure of these treatments (almost half of the patients relapse, but the organ-preserving aspect of chemoradiotherapy makes it in many cases so very worthwhile as a primary treatment). As chemoradiotherapy is a relatively new management philosophy, experience of salvaging patients with recurrences is therefore still relatively limited and expertise of it is not yet highly developed, although it is an area of great interest for the wider specialties involved. This book is specifically compiled to provide evidence-based, multidisciplinary management strategies for this complex and difficult to manage disease, combined with an account of the relevant techniques, results, and possible complications that might arise and how to deal with them. The book is intended for practicing specialists in head and neck cancer both surgery and oncology. It is aimed at the consultant level as well as at senior trainees interested in the field. Special features: Evidence-based, comprehensive review of the topic, which is very difficult to deal with in clinical practice and poorly covered in the literature International, multidisciplinary authorship including the top clinicians in their fields; most chapters have a surgeon and an oncologist involved, which offers top expertise and a balanced, multidisciplinary view General chapters on principles of relevant surgical techniques and radiotherapy; site-specific chapters dealing with specific management of recurrence at each head and neck site Pactical tips and pitfalls sections the practical details will allow readers to improve patient management and outcomes Illustrative cases including history, clinical findings, imaging, treatment (incl. Plplanning and results) brings decision-making process to life and easier to relate to clinical practice Summaries, recommended further reading and further research sections highlight important aspects, offer a valuable reference facility, and point out specific needs for further systematic studiesTarget groups: head and neck surgeons (with a background in otolaryngology, maxillofacial surgery, or plastic surgery), head and neck radiation and medical oncologists"--Provided by publisher.
