Product information Atlas of 360 Degree Skull Base Surgery

Skull base surgery has evolved over the last decade into a symbiotic combination of cutting-edge technology and surgical skills. From the ORL perspective, skull base is usually performed by three separate teams, namely, rhinologist who performs the endoscopic transnasal skull base surgery, neurotologist who performs posterolateral skull base, and head and neck surgeon who performs the open skull base approaches. These traditional division, although still very much applicable in most countries, is now being challenged by some group of surgeons who perform the entire skull base surgery.

The editors of this surgical atlas belong to this group who performs the entire range of skull base as the surgical skills and instruments are interchangeable. Current fellowship includes exposure to the entire range of skull base, thus pioneering a younger generation of skull base surgeons who inherit the same versatility and technical capability of performing the entire range of skull base surgery. Many colleagues around the globe practice a single corridor of approaches. However, we believe in practicing 360-degree skull base, thus the need for this unique atlas that encompasses the entire skull base. 

Key Features:

  • Step-by-step description of procedures with detailed photographs
  • More than 2,000 high-definition photographs to enhance the understanding of the text
  • Detailed description of tips, tricks, and pitfalls to be avoided is covered in the atlas.
  • Complications and their management, reconstruction of skull base defects, and rehabilitation chapters
  • Comprehensive overview of pituitary tumors, craniopharyngioma, meningioma, craniovertebral junction pathologies, and chordoma

Thieme offers electronic books in PDF and EPUB formats. For both formats, you need software to display the documents on your reading device. This software is not part of the e-book download.

What is the PDF format?
Adobe PDF format (Portable Document Format) is a standard format in MAC/PC area. Free programs for reading a PDF are available for all common operating systems (e.g. Windows, Mac OS, Linux) and for almost all e-book readers such as e-book readers, tablets or smartphones.

What is the EPUB format?
EPUB (electronic publication) is a standard format for e-books that enables dynamic adaptation of the text to the size of the display device. It is particularly well suited for displaying e-books on tablet PCs, smartphones, and e-book readers.
EPUBs can also be easily displayed on MACs/PCs via the free ADE (Adobe Digital Editions) software, for example.

Is an Internet connection required to read an e-book?
An Internet connection is required only to download the e-book to the reader. Once the download is complete, you can view and read the e-book without an Internet connection.

You can read an e-book on up to six different (mobile) devices. These devices must be authorized with the same Adobe ID.

Can I exchange/return an e-book?
E-books are products that are not suitable for return due to their nature. Just like downloads of other electronic files (movies, music or software), e-books are excluded from the right of withdrawal. A return or exchange is therefore not possible.
