A comprehensive and comprehensible work on the subject of orbital fractures. It is based on the experiences of the author in treating some 500 patients presenting almost every possible problem in this particular field of surgery. The relatively recent introduction of new craniofacial or maxillofacial surgery techniques has resulted in considerable advances in both the primary management of severe orbital fractures, as well as the treatment of post-traumatic deformities. This book addresses these and many other issues in a clear and practical manner. Special chapters provide guidelines on the surgical anatomy of the orbit, as well as on diagnosis and classification, with particular emphasis on the practical aspect of the correct indications for limited or extensive surgical treatment. The sections of the book dealing with surgical techniques provide detailed advice on the management of simple and complex fractures, and a separate chapter deals with surgical techniques for secondary corrections.As well as being intended for orbital and oculoplastic surgeons, this work should be of interest to those working in cranial and maxillofacial trauma and plastic and reconstructive surgery, as well as to otolaryngologists, ophthalmologists and radiologists.
