Reviews

"The authors and editors of this text admirably review their individual experiences with anterior endoscopic skull base approaches."
Philip E. Stieg, PhD, MD

"A superb compendium on the current status of this emerging specialty. This volume is beautifully illustrated with excellent artwork and extraordinarily clear endoscopic photographs and imaging studies."
Jatin P. Shah, MD FACS, HonFRCS(Edin), HonFRACS, HonFDSRCS

"...Illustrations include color drawings, radiography, and operative pictures, which are often presented simultaneously to facilitate understanding...This is a novel and useful consolidation of the experiences of many pioneers in an evolving field. It forms a solid basis to address current challenges, and will ultimately aid in the proliferation of minimally invasive skull base surgery."
