Become familiar with the key anatomic "corridors" in the skull base, the sinonasal tract, and adjacent areas to guide and greatly expand your endoscopic surgical competence. Highlighting the most recent experience from seven top leaders and innovators in the field, this seminal new work presents detailed topographic anatomy of the skull base and adjacent areas in a way not previously seen before. The result is a multidisciplinary atlas merging anatomy, otolaryngology, neurosurgery, and radiology, so as to facilitate creation of a mental "virtual reconstruction" of the complete approach and operative situs. The result is a greatly extended range of surgical possibilities into previously uncha...

Adipose Tissue

Adipose tissue is a specialized connective tissue which, depending on type, plays different and significant roles in the human body: protects against environmental factors, stores lipids and triacylglycerol, synthesizes fatty acids and is involved in the process of thermogenesis. It is also a major secretory organ and highly active metabolic tissue. It secretes, for example, cholesterol, retinol, steroid hormones, prostaglandins and proteins known as "adipokines". Some of these molecules may be associated with pathologies such as obesity and insulin resistance. In humans, there are two main sites of adipose tissue accumulation: visceral and subcutaneous. Obesity is a worldwide health problem. This book also discusses a series of up-to-date topics about this pathology.

Conoscere l’anatomia dei mascellari e del cavo orale è fondamentale per il chirurgo orale. Questo atlante ha una grande efficacia didattica perché vengono utilizzate foto di dissezioni anatomiche in cui le arterie vengono lavorate con una particolare resina rossa che le rende facilmente riconoscibili. Sono, inoltre stati evidenziati quei particolari, quali le varianti anatomiche, che sono spesso trascurati ma la cui conoscenza è di fondamentale importanza per la corretta interpretazione dello specifico distretto anatomico.
