Althoughthe revised text remains an exam-based guide to both practical techniques and clinical information, the new structure and format reflects the changes in the patterns and treatment of facial injuries in the contemporary trauma environment. Co-authored by two respected maxillofacial surgeons, this new book is invaluable for all trainees in oral and maxillofacial surgery. It is also a useful reference for plastic and otolaryngology trainees, as well as general, orthopaedic and accident surgeons.
