Rod Rohrich – Dallas Rhinoplasty. Nasal Surgery by the Masters (Third edition)

Описание

The first annual Dallas Rhinoplasty Symposium was held in 1984. Having
trained in both otolaryngology and plastic surgery, Dr. Jack Gunter recognized
a need for rhinoplasty education and an exchange of ideas to further knowledge
about this complex surgery. He was one of the first to champion the open approach
and to teach the art of rhinoplasty to plastic surgery and otolaryngology
trainees, as well as practicing surgeons. Dr. Gunter organized the first symposium
and has been an integral part of its growth and evolution into one of the most
popular aesthetic plastic surgery meetings. The Dallas Rhinoplasty Symposium
has evolved to include didactic lectures, panel discussions, case presentations,
surgical video demonstrations, and the anatomy dissection laboratory.
Although attendance has grown dramatically over the years, the Symposium
continues to offer an intimate and congenial atmosphere where attendees and
faculty have the chance to interact and discuss strategies and approaches for rhinoplasty
surgery. Now in its thirty-first year, the Symposium has hosted many
preeminent rhinoplasty surgeons over the past three decades and has served to
inspire the interest of young plastic surgeons and otolaryngologists with aspirations
to develop the necessary knowledge and skillset to perform this complex
yet fascinating surgery.
In 2002, the first edition of Dallas Rhinoplasty: Nasal Surgery by the Masters was
published to compile the knowledge and concepts that had been, in large part,
developed by faculty who have attended the Dallas Rhinoplasty Symposium.
A second edition followed in 2007, with updates to existing chapters and new
chapters covering the latest advances in rhinoplasty. The second edition included
video content demonstrating anatomy dissections and surgical technique to enhance
the multimedia experience for the user.
In the 12 years since the publication of the first edition, we have seen the continued
evolution of rhinoplasty surgery, including increased interest in and application
of the open approach as well as the further development of techniques
that increase precision, control, and consistency. In this third edition, we have
updated all chapters with concepts and techniques that have become widely accepted
and used by the foremost rhinoplasty surgeons. We have added many new
chapters providing practical approaches to key rhinoplasty concepts and other chapters focusing on ideas and innovations that have been introduced over recent
years and have quickly become accepted and practiced, given their utility. We
have significantly improved the multimedia experience with greatly expanded
video content and new online access to these materials. Throughout the book
we have attempted to present information in a thorough yet clear and concise
manner so that both novice and expert rhinoplasty surgeons will find this book
an efficient and easy to use resource.
Although this book has grown as knowledge in our field has expanded, our objectives
remain the same: to assist the nasal surgeon in attaining consistent results
using careful preoperative analysis, precise operative planning, meticulous intraoperative
execution, and long-term follow-up with critical evaluation of results.
It is our sincere hope that this third edition of Dallas Rhinoplasty: Nasal Surgery
by the Masters will continue to be a key resource for surgeons with an interest in
rhinoplasty—both those who perform rhinoplasty routinely and those early in
their journey to becoming master nasal surgeons
