Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐There is really a lot in this book dealing with the parabulbar balloon that Dr. Kreissig is fond of. To my knowledge, this device is not used much or at all in the United States. The latter half the book which looks at expanding gases and re-operations is better. However, I found volume 1 of this series to be more useful and worth the time to read. Volume 2, much less so.

⭐Thank you Dr deniala for recommendation
