Book excerpt: The challenge of treating complex spinal deformity often demands innovative solutions and greater skill than the initial surgical intervention; strategic planning is the critical element in successful surgical execution and outcome. Spinal Deformity: A Guide to Surgical Planning and Management, edited and written by the leading experts, is a landmark publication that provides critical information needed to safely plan, stage, and execute operations for the full range of complex spinal deformities. A Virtual Gold Mine of Information This book is an invaluable and practical tool for managing spinal deformities in your practice. Organized into four parts, it begins with a focus on recent advances in spine technology, starting with biomechanics, deformity classification, conservative management, and surgical indications. Subsequent chapters discuss technologic innovations, including spinal biologics, image guidance, and minimally invasive approaches for anterior and posterior spinal fusion. This introductory section is essential reading for the surgeon learning basic technique as well as for the experienced surgeon seeking to refine and enhance skills. The remaining parts focus on state-of-the-art surgical techniques for treating spinal deformity in the cervical spine, the thoracic spine, and the lumbosacral spine. Specific chapters have also been included on managing deformities at the cervicothoracic, thoracolumbar, and lumbosacropelvic junctions. In addition, both open and minimally invasive techniques are described. Organized with a consistent format, each technique chapter includes information on indications, planning and assessment, clinical problem solving, surgical technique, and postoperative care. A Who's Who of Spine Surgery The editors, Drs. Mummaneni, Lenke, and Haid; the part editors, Drs. Benzel, Kuklo, Resnick, and Shaffrey; and the contributors are world-renowned both neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons who have extensive experience in treating spinal deformity. Algorithms, Surgical Plans, and Tips and Tricks Aid in the Decision-Making Process Beautifully illustrated with step-by-step surgical technique, this book provides the practical advice, clinical nuances, and learning aids to assist you in the diagnosis and treatment of complex surgical deformities. Numerous imaging modalities are used to demonstrate the preoperative presentation as well as postoperative results. In addition, clinical problem-solving sections with treatment algorithms guide you in selecting the best surgical approach for each patient. Hundreds of case examples demonstrate the excellent results that can be achieved. To enhance the learning experience, an accompanying DVD with operative video is included.

Book excerpt: The third volume of Progress in Spinal Pathology gathers a selection of papers presented at the 7th National Meeting of the Italian Scoliosis Research Group on Congenital Scoliosis. Up until 20 years ago congenital scoliosis was considered to be a practically benign disease characterized by a slight progression of spinal deformity and its prognosis was consequently good. This statement has recently turned out to be too optimistic. Deeper studies on spinal pathology have proved the existence of highly progressive forms of congenital scoliosis often associated with other diseases affecting the urinary and cardiac systems and above all the spinal cord. As a result a careful evaluation of the patient is necessary before any type of surgical treatment may be initiated, in order to reduce the risk of irreversible lesions to the spinal cord to a minimum. This volume encompasses all clinical and diagnostic aspects of the subject including the latest achievements and techniques of treatment. Furthermore it is completed by eminent studies on subjects of great interest such as imperfect osteogenesis, cervical and cranial abnormalities in von Recklinghausen's disease, experimental comparative analysis of different types of instrumentation used in the surgical treatment of vertebral fractures, rib resection following vertebral arthrodesis for cases of thoracic idiopathic scoliosis, and anesthesia in vertebral surgery for spinal muscle atrophy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the key features of normal, age-dependent neonatal head ultrasonography as well as the findings of the most common neonatal neurological disorders as visualized by this modality. Neonatal head ultrasound is an important diagnostic tool in the initial evaluation of intracranial abnormalities in newborns. Head ultrasound is a safe and cost-efficient tool for detecting brain abnormalities in preterm and term neonates, monitoring the progression of brain lesions, and describing the maturation of the developing neonatal brain. To facilitate its use at the bedside, the book is organized by clinical findings and their differential diagnoses. For each disorder, a clinical vignette describing the clinical presentation of the newborn is accompanied by high-quality ultrasound images that depict the abnormal findings and detailed explanations of these findings. This book is a succinct guide to neonatal head ultrasonography for neuroradiologists, neonatologists, and pediatricians.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once an uncommon clinical finding, the Chiari malformations are now frequently seen with the advent of more sophisticated imaging modalities. With more than one hundred years of experience with these entities, medicine currently has a much better understanding of the embryology and pathophysiology of the disorder. Long-term outcome studies are becoming more prevalent and patients are commonly operated on with generally favorable results. Comprehensive in design, the The Chiari Malformations focuses on the two most common forms of hindbrain herniation, the Chiari I and II malformations. Since the original description and classification of hindbrain hernias more than one hundred and twenty years ago, the Chiari malformations have revealed much of their pathophysiology and have become easily diagnosed radiologically. Indeed with the availability of MRI, more and more patients are being labeled with the diagnosis but without symptoms or appropriate symptoms. Timely and an invaluable addition to the literature, The Chiari Malformations thoroughly details the progress that has been made with our understanding of these conditions, their radiologic definition, details of operative intervention and prediction of outcome.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades imaging has proved one of the most rapidly expanding areas of medicine. The present day trainees entering radiology are no longer trained by radiologists who cover and are well informed on most aspects of their specialty as was the case with previous generations. Instead they encounter a confusing array of subspecialists divided both by systems and by techniques. The system specialists include neuroradiologists. vascular radiologists. gastrointestinal radiologists. chest radiologists. and skeletal radiologists. Technique specialists include experts in nuclear medicine. ultrasound. computed tomography and magnetic resonance. and there are subspecialists in both groups. not to mention others like pediatric radiologists who fit into neither classification. It is our experience that this plethora of experts each with his own individual approach is bewildering and intimidating to the novice radiologist. The numerous monographs on individual subjects and tech niques and the large textbooks so valuable to the more advanced radiologist are also confusing and unhelp ful to the new recruit. It was for these reasons that we decided to embark on this new Short Textbook. The aim was to produce a concise and integrated volume which could provide the beginner with a balanced and realistic view of the true place of different imaging techniques in current practice. Details of technique are generally excluded; most will be inevitably absorbed with increasing practical experience. The emphasis throughout is on clinical usage. and the relative and often changing importance of different methods in specific clinical contexts.

Book excerpt: As an addition to the European postgraduate training system for young neurosurgeons we began to publish in 1974 this series devoted to Advances and Technical Standards in Neurosurgery which was later sponsored by the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies. The fact that the English language is well on the way to becoming the international medium at European scientific conferences is a great asset in terms of mutual understanding. Therefore we have decided to publish all contributions in English, regardless of the native language of the authors. All contributions are submitted to the entire editorial board before publication of any volume. Our series is not intended to compete with the publications of original scientific papers in other neurosurgical journals. Our intention is, rather, to present fields of neurosurgery and related areas in which important recent advances have been made. The contributions are written by specialists in the given fields and constitute the first part of each volume. In the second part of each volume, we publish detailed descriptions of standard operative procedures, furnished by experienced clinicians; in these articles the authors describe the techniques they employ and explain the advantages, difficulties and risks involved in the various procedures. This part is intended primarily to assist young neurosurgeons in their post graduate training. However, we are convinced that it will also be useful to experienced, fully trained neurosurgeons.
