  • Title: Craniofacial surgery. Its evolution and application.
    Author: Schafer ME.
    Journal: Neurol Clin; 1985 May; 3(2):331-57. PubMed ID: 3894919.
    Abstract:
    Craniofacial surgery is a relatively new subspecialty that offers correction for many complex congenital, traumatic, and tumor-related deformities of the head and face. An experienced and extensive craniofacial team is imperative to the long-term success of a craniofacial surgery program. A greater awareness of the syndromes and deformities involved, and of the corrections possible, leads to earlier diagnosis, appropriate early care (sometimes life-sustaining), and the establishment of proper long-term treatment plans.
