CASE-BASED TESTING IN ORAL AND
MAXILLOFACIAL SURGERY
VOLUME ONE A SELF-ASSESSMENT CD Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology and Its
Treatment Robert E. Marx, DDS, and Diane Stern,

Case-based learning is an effective and
stimulating method to increase your
knowledge base and prepare for
examinations. This volume, “Oral and
Maxillofacial Pathology and Its
Treatment,” features 100 questions
derived from actual cases that will test
and improve your knowledge in oral and
maxillofacial pathology and its
treatment.
The questions in this series cover
topics that span the entire spectrum of
oral and maxillofacial pathology,
including oral cancer, odontogenic cysts
and tumors, fibro-osseous diseases,
salivary gland pathologies, and much
more. Each item in the test is formatted
as a brief description, often
accompanied by a clinical photograph,
radiograph, computed tomography scan,
and/or laboratory value, followed by a
succinct question. In most cases, the
question is followed by four
multiple-choice answers, of which only
one is correct. A unique feature of the
program is that it not only gives the
correct answer, but each answer
concludes with a comprehensive
discussion of why it is correct and why
the other options can be ruled out. Both
the answers and these explanations are
located in a separate file so that the
test can be used both as an actual
examination and as an educational tool.
Also included are several “matching”
questions that challenge the reader to
coordinate and compare clinical,
radiographic, and histopathology
findings.
This test is designed for practitioners
and students who wish to increase their
knowledge, improve their clinical
practice, and/or prepare for board
examinations.

Case-based
learning is an effective and stimulating
method to increase your knowledge base and
prepare for examinations. This volume, “Oral
and Maxillofacial Reconstructive Surgery”
features 100 questions derived from actual
cases that will test and improve your
knowledge in oral and maxillofacial hard and
soft tissue reconstructive procedures.
The questions
in this series cover topics that span the
entire spectrum of oral and maxillofacial
reconstructive surgery including, continuity
defect grafts, rigid fixation, soft tissue
flaps, pre prosthetic procedures, graft
harvesting, complications, and much more.
Each item in the test is formatted as a
