Book description
Benefit from the expertise of world-renowned neurosurgeons, who share
their strategies for managing a wide range of cerebral and spinal
conditions involving vascular and tumor pathology. Presented in a case
format, the book details problems, history, surgical tactics,
procedures, and postoperative course, followed by a valuable section of
comments from the experts. You will find insights on such complex
procedures as clipping of giant intracranial aneurysms, removal of brain
stem tumors, bypass surgery with radial artery graft and more. The
resulting work is a compilation that explains some of the most difficult
clinical problems in the field while enhancing your ability to treat
more routine cases. By turning their talents to the toughest cases, Dr.
Kobayashi and his colleagues have created a reference that is certain to
advance the practice of neurosurgery at every level, with treatments
that are more accurate, less invasive, and safe. "A compilation
of 71 case studies submitted by an international authorship of
well-known and respected senior neurogeons, The key points section for
each study is extremely insightful...I highly recommend this book and
feel that it is priced appropriately. This volume will be an important
addition to residency training program libraries and to those
neurosurgeons involved in the practice of complex vascular or skull base
surgery."--Journal of Neurosurgery "This incomparable textbook
for neurosurgeons describes 71 complex vascular, neoplastic, spinal, and
miscellaneous lesions that were surgically treated by recognized
neurosurgeons from around the world. [The book] contains a wealth of
information on complex lesions. Neurosurgeons who must decide on a
surgical strategy for their patients will discover the best options in
this book."--Neuro-Oncology "Presentation is original and
appropriate...the illustrations are superb...the text well-supported by
current references...an excellent contribution to neurosurgical and
neurological libraries...information is of ultimate importance in the
development of neurosurgery."--Doody's Book Reviews Professor and
Chairman, Shinshu University School of Medicine, Japan
