The cranio-orbital approaches have been successfully employed for resection of tumours involving the orbit and anterior skull base. With modifications of the cranio-orbital bone flap (changing the position and size of the flap), incorporation of posterior orbitotomy or zygomatic osteotomy, the cranio-orbital approaches can be specifically tailored to optimize the access to tumours located in a ...

THE introduction of cranio-facial surgery has enabled a number of hideous facial deformities to be corrected but at the same time new problems have been created and not all the old ones solved. The problems created by cranio-facial surgery are such secondary deformities as enophthalmos and lagophthalmos, ptosis and canthal drift. The problems unsolved by cranio-facial surgery, although it has m...

Computed Tomography (CT) with three-dimensional reconstructions was studied in cranio-facial deformities. The pre-operative and follow-up study of cranio-facial deformities can be performed with spiral CT. With this modality quantitative information can be provided in order to measure the entity of airway obstruction and the result of procedure affecting bone structures.
