title: The role of microsurgery in pediatric craniofacial reconstruction.

Situations arise in which practitioners of both disciplines must work closely together to achieve a satisfactory reconstruction for the patient. This unified approach has set the stage for a new era in the treatment of pediatric craniofacial problems.
