Seven Aneurysms: Tenets and Techniques for Clipping
combines the instructive nature of a textbook with the visual aspects
of an atlas to guide readers through the surgical principles,
approaches, and techniques they need to dissect and clip cerebral
aneurysms. Comprised of three concise sections, the book distills the
distinguished author's vast experience into a series of easily
accessible tutorials presented through clear, systematic descriptions
and stunning, full-color illustrations. The first section explains the
critical concepts and basic tenets of aneurysm microsurgery followed by
a section on the various craniotomies and exposures necessary for
successful clipping. The final section covers microsurgical anatomy,
dissection strategies, and clipping techniques for each of the seven
most common aneurysm types that are the focus of this book.Features
Strategies for handling the seven aneurysms most often seen by
neurosurgeons: PCoA, MCA, ACoA, OphA, PcaA, basilar bifurcation, and PICA
383 full-color surgical photographs demonstrate operative
techniques; 77 high-quality drawings display anatomy and spatial relationships
Succinct text facilitates quick reading and easy reference
Clipping remains an essential treatment method for the most frequently
encountered aneurysms. This must-have guide will enable neurosurgery
residents, fellows, or practicing neurosurgeons to handle the majority
of the aneurysms they will encounter with confidence and poise. “[Four
stars] Could not be published at a better time...superb illustrations,
well-referenced text...technique insights...not only a superb book, but
also one with historical significance...unparalleled in the book
literature on aneurysm clipping.”-Doody's Review Professor and Vice
