Beschreibung
This atlas discusses the surgical anatomy of the parasellar and neighbouring regions in the midline and in the posterior cranial fossa. The most important feature of this book is the parallel drawn between surgical anatomy as demonstrated on normal fresh cadaver specimens and in vivo surgical procedures for tumorous and vascular lesions, which are only possible if the anatomical relationships on the surface of the cavernous sinus and its walls, the architecture of its interior and the previously determined sequence of operative approaches are taken into account. This book is the first to deal with the anatomy of the cavernous sinus in a practical surgical manner and which applies the anatomy to concrete examples.
