Management and new therapeutic strategies for tumors, including gene therapy and molecularly targeted treatments, are also covered.

Divided into eight sections encompassing 61 chapters, the book begins with an overview of the basic principles of tumors, including the epidemiology of...

Das Buch behandelt die Auswirkungen von bosartigen Tumoren (solide Tumore und hamatologische Systemerkrankungen) auf das periphere Nervensystem. Die Gliederung umfasst die einzelnen Abschnitte des PNS (Hirnnerven, Spinalwurzel, Plexus, Rumpfnerven, periphere Nerven), den neuromuskularen Ubergang und die Muskulatur. In jedem Kapitel werden verschiedene Ursachen von Lasionsmoglichkeiten erortert und mit eigenen Erfahrungen, die an etwa 1000 neuroonkologischen Patienten gewonnen wurden, verglichen. Darstellung und Gliederung sind fur das periphere Nervensystem neu. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit wird...

Handbook of Clinical Neurology: Neuro-Oncology, Part II provides an overview of the most recent developments in the field of neuro-oncology, including new diagnostic imaging techniques, along with immunology, molecular biology, and clinical aspects of different types of tumors. It also considers management and new therapeutic strategies for tumors, such as gene therapy, radiation therapy, and molecularly targeted treatments.

Divided into five sections encompassing 33 chapters, the book begins with a description of specific tumor types such as low-grade gliomas, anaplastic...

This first volume describes the epidemiology of cancer, development of drugs, chemotherapy and surgical therapy, and the side effects of therapies and differential diagnoses. It shows that the diagnosis of side effects needs to be supported by scales and scores to grade their extent, and presents a number of tools and methods that can be used to assess the focal and generalized effects of chemotherapy on the central and peripheral nervous system.Cancer is often associated with pain and is a frequent issue in patients with chemotherapy-induced neuropathy. The participation of patients in...

This book is the result of reflections and work of the Specialty group on neurology in migrants of the World Federation of Neurology. The volume provides a synthesis of migrants’ health in relation to the sustainable development goals and the 2030 agenda, and an up-to-date overview on neurological diseases among migrants, refugees and ethnic minorities.The book is composed of both general chapters dealing with the history of migration, the relationship between climate change and migration flows, the migration and neurosciences research and the barriers to migrant’s health. Other chapters...

Die Neuroonkologie hat sich in den vergangenen Jahren als eine eigene Disziplin sowohl innerhalb der Neurologie als auch interdisziplinar etabliert: ubergreifend fur Onkologie, Interne Medizin mit onkologischen Patienten, Neurochirurgie, Radiochirurgie und theoretische Facher. Eine rasche Weiterentwicklung erfolgt sowohl in der Diagnostik als auch beim Therapieangebot. Das Buch ist nach pathophysiologischen Gesichtspunkten aufgebaut. Dies ermoglicht den Arzten eine rasche Identifikation der wahrscheinlichsten Ursache der Storung und zugleich eine ausfuhrliche Differentialdiagnose. Damit ist...
