Cousins, Yue-shuai Song, Xue Gao, editors.Summary: Featuring a set of 3-D anatomic images of ear surgery based on innovative photographic devices, this book introduces anatomical details of ear surgery in the main areas of the temporal bone and lateral skull base. After overviewing basic anatomy of temporal bone and lateral skull base, the following 8 chapters covers step by step anatomic and surgical procedures of various ear surgeries, including transcanal approach, retroauricular approach, translabyrinthine approach, middle fossa approach, retrosigmoid approach, infratemporal fossa approach, and the stereoscopic virtual anatomy of the temporal bone. It is a practical and useful resource for residents in head and neck surgery, and related field.

9 Stereoscopic Virtual Anatomy of Temporal Bone. - ArticleJochimsen PR, Noyes R.J Am Geriatr Soc. 1978 Nov;26(11):521-3.In an investigation of a new oral analgesic agent, codeine was chosen as the reference drug because of its established reputation as an effective agent for the relief of pain. Thirty-five patients with cancer pain were studied. Their average age was 58 years, During a 5-day hospital stay they received, on each of three days, either codeine (120 mg or 60 mg) or placebo. At hourly intervals after ingestion the nurse observer collected data on pain intensity and the degree of pain relief, and the patients independently charted the hourly intensity. Statistical analysis failed to show any significant superiority of either dose of codeine over placebo. Moreover, codeine is known to have a constipating effect. Re-appraisal of the value of codeine as an analgesic agent in elderly patients seems justified.
