Crystal Symmetry, Lattice Vibrations and Optical Spectroscopy of Solids

This concise handbook covers a diversity of subjects encompassing the broad spectrum of craniofacial surgery. As a quick reference guide intended for the less experienced craniofacial audience (i.e., the medical students, residents and fellows), fundamental concepts and techniques in craniomaxillofacial surgery are presented and explained for an improved comprehension of this complex topic. In addition, these highly-focused chapters are well aided by high-resolution illustrations, diagrams and tables that enable easy understanding of the basic principles of the more commonly performed operations.Contents: Principles of Craniofacial Surgery (Anthony Wolfe) Craniofacial Anatomy and Embryology (Arun K Gosain, Ali Totonchi and Stephanie Polites) Facial Analysis (Ali Totonchi, Bahman Guyuron and Raja Mohan) Fixation of the Craniofacial Skeleton (Gaby Doumit and Michael J Yaremchuk) Orthognathic Surgery Part I: Terminology and Surgical Techniques (Mark Urata, Jeffrey Hammoudeh and Michael Lypka) Orthognathic Surgery Part II: Common Patterns of Dentofacial Deformities and Case Studies (Jeffrey C Posnick and Neil Agnihotri) Principles and Practice of Mandibular Distraction Osteogenesis (Edward J Caterson and Joseph G McCarthy) Craniofacial Distraction of the Maxilla (Scott P Bartlett, Russell R Reid and Ivona Percec) Monobloc Advancement (James P Bradley and Henry Kawamoto) Craniofacial Trauma (Gerhard S Mundinger, Eduardo D Rodriguez and Paul N Manson) Cleft Lip (Ananth S Murthy) Cleft Palate (Joseph E Losee and Alexander Y Lin) Craniosynostosis (Steven R Cohen, Ryan C Frank, Hal S Meltzer and Michael L Levy) Microtia (James A Lehman) Maxillofacial and Salivary Pathology Treated by Surgery (Julien Ghannoum) Facial Nerve Paralysis and Its Management (Richard Y Ha and Claude-Jean Langevin) Craniofacial Applications in Facial Aesthetic Surgery (James E Zins and Chad R Gordon) Craniomaxillofacial Allotransplantation: From a Basic Science Perspective (Maria Siemionow and Fatih Zor) Maxillofacial Composite Tissue Allotransplantation: From a Clinical Perspective (Chad R Gordon, Srinivas M Susarla, James E Zins and Francis Papay) Congenital Facial Aplasias: Hemifacial Microsomia, Robin Sequence and Treacher Collins Syndrome (Marcin Czerwinski and Jeffrey A Fearon) Readership: Medical and dental students, craniofacial surgeons, dentists, ENT/head and neck surgeons, otolaryngologists, craniofacial biologists, bone biologists, facial plastic surgeons, maxillofacial surgeons, plastic and reconstructive surgeons and orthopedic surgeons.
