This is a state-of-the-art text that delivers the basic concepts, diagnosis and management of plastic, oral and maxillofacial surgery in young adults. Authoritative coverage is presented by a world renowned expert in the field. Over 3,000 images — including line illustrations and photographs — support detailed discussion of: craniosynostosis, craniofacial dysostoses syndromes, craniofacial syndromes and anomalies, congenital growths, benign and malignant head and neck tumors, trauma injuries, the cleft lip and palate.

• Details the authors preferred operative approaches for the manof the whole range of paediatric cranio- and maxillo- facial surgical procedures

Includes all of the basic science information that surgeons need to know, including morphology, genetics, tissue engineering, and distraction osteogenesis.

• Presents discussions of fundamental concepts and future directions in paediatric oral, maxillofacial and reconstructive surgery, authored by select international contributing experts.

Features over 3000 photographs depicting patients pre- and post-operatively and key operative techniques.
