OverviewOtolaryngology - head and neck surgeons, general surgeons, and thoracic surgeons are required to know how to perform various types of open airway surgery. However, due to a decrease in the number of patients with subglottic or tracheal stenosis and resident work hour restrictions, exposure to these cases during training is often inadequate. As a result, there is an ever-increasing need for training programs to develop lifelike open airway simulation models. These in turn will promote competency-based surgical residency training and a drive toward continuing medical education and maintenance of certification. Written by an international group of airway surgeons, Airway Reconstruction Surgical Dissection Manual is an essential guide for residents and fellows in the fields of otolaryngology - head and neck surgery, general surgery, and thoracic surgery, as well as consultant surgeons in these specialties who are responsible for managing airway conditions, but infrequently perform open airway surgeries. This manual covers everything the trainee requires for mastering open airway surgical procedures on a live animal and extrapolating these techniques to human patients.It is extensively detailed for the beginner or for the experienced surgeon perfecting his or her technique, and can be used by the individual working at his or her own pace or in a group setting. There are several key features to this text: Complex tasks are broken into rudimentary steps so they can be mastered by trainees at any level High quality photos and diagrams of each surgical step convey information clearly and succinctly Procedural differences between animals and humans are clearly identified for easy and practical application to human patients Full Product DetailsAuthor: Evan J.

Table of ContentsReviewsThis multi-author work is based on the Toronto training programme. It is a ring-bound manual, printed on tough glossy paper, ideally suited to its likely working environment. There are large and clear colour illustrations throughout, with brief explanatory text. An early chapter takes the novice through an anatomical dissection and cleverly contrasts the porcine anatomy with the human. Fortunately, they do seem well matched. Exercises that follow include cricoid split surgery and laryngotracheoplasty, in all their forms, with guides to harvesting alar and rib cartilage for grafting. Tracheostomy, cricotracheal resection, tracheoplasty and stenting are particularly suited to what is true surgical practice, after all, rather than a cadaver exercise. This is a highly specialised field, but the manual would make excellent reading for any laryngologist or paediatric ENT surgeon. The illustrations are of such a high quality, with every step shown, that even a humble otologist felt this looked like easy work. The real message, I am sure, is that this would convince any interested reader to sign up for such a hands-on course. -Liam Flood, The Journal of Laryngology & Otology (April 2014) """This multi-author work is based on the Toronto training programme.
