Atlas of the Facial Nerve and Related Structures
from Dentistry Made Simple · host Dentistry Made Simple
This clinical resource utilizes high-resolution cadaveric dissections to illustrate the complex, multi-segmented path of the seventh cranial nerve from the brain stem to the face. The text provides a technical overview of the nerve’s intracranial, intratemporal, and extratemporal segments, highlighting critical landmarks such as the geniculate ganglion and the facial canal. Beyond purely anatomical descriptions, the authors emphasize microsurgical applications intended to improve outcomes in facial reanimation and reconstructive surgery. The atlas serves as both a pedagogical tool for trainees and a specialized guide for practitioners in fields like neurosurgery and otolaryngology. Detailed prefaces reflect on the legacy of Professor Rhoton and the evolution of anatomical study through precise silicon-injected specimens.Get the Book now from Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Atlas-Facial-Nerve-Related-Structures/dp/9819636191?&linkCode=ll2&tag=cvthunderx-20&linkId=6543d15d9513c89d22de83cb7b20f728&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tlYou can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/dentistry_made_simpleProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
