Course Description: The care of the facial trauma patient continues to evolve in the ever-changing face of surgery. Patients can be reassured that their care is managed by a variety of clinicians knowledgeable in the assessment and management of complex facial injuries. Although advances in imaging modalities, bone fixation techniques and technology continue to expand; the foundation upon which the reconstructive ladder of facial injuries rests, remains grounded in the predictive value of the history and physical examination. The overall course objective is to delineate the relationship between the premorbid state of form and function with the mechanism of injury and how this may lead to successful diagnosis and outcomes.
Speaker: Robert S. Gilardetti, D.M.D., M.D.
