Featuring over 400 full-color surgical photographs and drawings, this text/atlas is a step-by-step guide to the surgical approaches used to expose the facial skeleton. The authors describe in detail the key anatomic structures and the technical aspects of each approach, so that the surgeon can safely gain access to the region of the craniofacial skeleton requiring surgery. This Second Edition includes full-color intraoperative photographs that complement the surgical drawings. Several new approaches have been added--the transconjunctival approach to the medial orbit, subtarsal approach to the internal orbit, Weber-Ferguson approach to the midface, and facial degloving approach to the midface.

Ellis uber alles:
A medium book from a great author. Many congratulations to him for his job but I waited something more from the first maxillofacial traumatologist of the world
surgical approaches to the facial skeleton by Edward Ellis, Michael F Zide:
It is an easy read text with clearly illustrated diagrams and pictures.
I would recommend it to all aspiring and practising oral & maxillofacial surgeons around the world.
To the authors, I would urge them to keep up with the good quality both in style, content and description. Dr. Sanya Bernard Okumu,

very informative book with easy to follow format:
This book is very good to quickly review the approaches to the facial skeleton. Book is easy to read and straight to the point.
A must have:
The second edition is even better than the first one. It is a must for every ENT, Plastic and OMFS residents. Also would be helpful for surgeons in practice to review.
