      Quelle intervention envisager pour rétablir un édifice nasal difforme ? Est-il possible de restaurer l'harmonie d'un nez que la croissance conflictuelle de ses composants a déformé ? Doit-on chercher à ce que le nez soit beau, ou simplement en harmonie avec le visage ? Les questions que le chirurgien est amené à se poser dans sa pratique sont nombreuses et délicates, aussi est-il nécessaire qu'il soit préparé et doté des bonnes armes pour y répondre. Cet ouvrage permet de comprendre en profondeur les spécificités de la technique chirurgicale novatrice de correction des déviations de la cloison nasale puis de reconstruction de la pyramide nasale qu'est la septorhinoplastie par désarticulation. Suivant une démarche pratique et didactique, l'ouvrage est subdivisé en trois parties principales : - la première partie s'intéresse aux origines des déformations du septum nasal surla base du concept évo-dévo de la formation du nez et décrit en détail la techniquechirurgical... de leur correction : la septoplastie ; - la deuxième partie expose les origines des déformations de la pyramide nasale et analyse la technique chirurgicale de septorhinoplastie par désarticulation ; - enfin, une troisième partie pratique propose un focus sur de nombreux cas cliniques concrets, décrivant le cas à traiter, la technique chirurgicale employée, et l'analyse critique du résultat morphologique. Riche d'une iconographie regroupant plus de 350 planches et illustrations, de textes rédigés dans une perspective didactique et pratique, cet ouvrage est le fruit des nombreuses années d'expérience de l'auteur. Il constitue une source d'informations complète, inédite et originale sur une technique en progression. Il s'adresse aux chirurgiens ORL et maxillo-faciaux ainsi qu'aux chirurgiens esthétiques et plasticiens. Roger Jankowski est chirurgien des hôpitaux, chef du service d'ORL et de Chirurgie cervico-faciale du Centre hospitalier universitaire de Nancy, et professeur à l'Université de Lorraine.

      L'hystérectomie est un acte chirurgical qui consiste à enlever tout ou une partie de l'utérus ; c'est, en France, avec près de 80 000 femmes opérées chaque année, une des interventions gynécologiques les plus pratiquées. Le choix de la voie d'abord, abdominale, vaginale ou laparoscopie, est un point clé dans ce type d'intervention, c'est l'évaluation préopératoire qui permet de déterminer la technique la plus adaptée. Cet ouvrage présente, dans une partie introductive, l'environnement anatomique et chirurgical (matériel, voie d'abord…), puis passe en revue l'ensemble des hystérectomies simples et élargies. Chaque intervention est traitée selon les trois voies d'abord et présente les difficultés techniques – comme l'utérus volumineux –, et les complications fréquentes – comme les hémorragies ou les plaies vésicales. Le propos de l'ouvrage est étayé par de nombreuses illustrations en couleur, près de 400 photos et dessins chirurgicaux, qui rendent compte avec précision des actes opératoires décrits. Rédigé dans un style synthétique et efficace et fidèle aux principes qui ont fait le succès de la collection Techniques chirurgicales, cet ouvrage s'adresse à tous les chirurgiens gynécologues-obstétr...
