| Summary |
Based on the experience at one of the largest centers for craniosynostosis and craniofacial malformations, this book reports on the clinical use of a rare technique known as Frontofacial Monobloc Advancement (FFMBA), one of the most rewarding procedures for upper- and mid-face reconstruction in patients with faciocraniosynostosis, a rare craniofacial anomaly associated with premature fusion of multiple cranial sutures presenting with brachycephaly, orbital proptosis, maxillary hypoplasia and anterior crossbite. Technical refinements and strategic planning have made it almost a routine procedure at the French Reference Center for Craniosynostosis and Craniofacial Malformations. This easy-to-consult, well illustrated book includes technical tips and indications for its use in Crouzon, Pfeiffer and Apert syndromes. It also provides a protocol, including a proposed management algorithm for faciocraniosynostosis. As such, it will appeal to craniofacial surgeons, especially those at large craniofacial centers |
