  • Title: Face value: trends and advances in craniofacial surgery.
    Author: Sloan ES.
    Journal: Todays OR Nurse; 1990 Sep; 12(9):17-22. PubMed ID: 2219241.
    Abstract:
    1. The ability of a computerized tomography scan to project a three-dimensional reconstruction of the patient's skeleton allows surgeons to plan the reconstructive process preoperatively. 2. Because of the length of the procedure, patient positioning, cardiorespiratory status, and laboratory values are essential. 3. It is beneficial to perform craniofacial surgery at early ages while there is still growth potential and before the skin and muscles have tightened.
