Jedną z podstawowych procedur w arsenale chirurgicznym chirurga szczękowo-twarzowego jest możliwośc sekcjonowania i repozycjonowania szkieletu środkowej części twarzy. Wszechstronnośc metody LeFort I i jej odmian pozwala chirurgowi korygowac szerokie spektrum nieprawidlowości szkieletu środkowej części twarzy, zar wno wrodzonych, rozwojowych, jak i nabytych. Niniejsza książka zawiera przegląd zasad i szczeg l w chirurgicznych stosowanych w chirurgii ortognatycznej szczękowo-twarzowej.

Among the essential procedures in the surgical armamentarium of a maxillofacial surgeon is the ability to section and reposition the mid facial skeleton. The versatility of the LeFort I and its variations allows the surgeon to correct a broad spectrum of mid facial skeletal abnormalities whether of congenital, developmental, or acquired in origin. This book will provide an overview of the principles and surgical details used in maxillofacial orthognathic surgery.

Schiff bases are the most widely used organic compounds. These are generally bi- or tridentate ligands capable of forming very stable complexes with metal ions. In organic synthesis, Schiff base reactions are useful in making carbon-nitrogen bonds. The chemistry of Schiff base metal complexes have been studied extensively over past few decades. The C=N linkage in azomethine derivatives is found to be vital for deciding their biological activities. Several azomethine and their metal complexes have been reported to exhibit a broad range of biological activities, including antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral, antipyretic and anticancer properties. This review concentrates on the synthesis and pharmacological potentials of some selective Schiff base metal complexes.
