Atlas of Pediatric Head and Neck and Skull Base Surgery by renowned surgeons Dan M. Fliss and Ari DeRowe and an impressive group of interdisciplinary innovators fills a gap in the literature. This richly illustrated atlas features detailed discussions and guidance on groundbreaking surgeries developed and currently performed by top academic surgeons in the field, many of whom contributed to this book. The introductory section lays a solid foundation of knowledge, covering pediatric anatomy, the distinctive topography of the skull base, anesthesia and pain control considerations, and imaging modalities. Fifty-four subsequent chapters encompass a rich spectrum of approaches and pediatric pathologies, organized by head and neck; skull base and craniofacial; airway, voice, and swallowing; trauma; and reconstruction sections. Surgical chapters include an introduction; evidence-based guidelines; preoperative, anesthetic, intraoperative, and postoperative considerations; techniques and positioning; extensive references; and more"--
