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...

This book highlights the successful collaboration of plastic surgeons,
neurosurgeons, and, in some cases, ENT, maxillofacial, oral, and oculoplastic
surgeons, in treating some of the most complex craniofacial, skull-based,
intracranial, and spinal problems. Beginning with the basic principles of wound
healing and flap rotation, you will find full discussions of craniofacial
anomalies, skull base tumors, scalp closures, skull defects, management
techniques for spinal dysraphism, and much more.

This text provides insights into current trends and controversial issues
regarding state-of-the-art techniques in neurosurgery, interventional
neuroradiology, and endovascular surgery. The authors confront such questions
as: Are unruptured aneurysms managed most effectively by neurosurgical clipping
or endovascular coiling? Is surgery or endovascular coiling the best treatment
for ruptured cerebral aneurysms of the anterior or posterior cerebral
circulation? In managing arteriovenous malformations and fistulas, should
clinicians use neurointerventional...

Derived from Harvey Cushing's remarkable personal collection in the Brain
Tumor Registry, The Legacy of Harvey Cushing: Profiles of Patient Care presents a stunning historical account of Cushing's surgical
cases and research from 1905 to 1930.

This beautifully illustrated book features
800 of Cushing's surgical drawings and photographs of patients and tumor
specimens. Preserved untouched for sixty years in the Yale University Library,
the images provide the earliest catalog of neurological and neuropathological
disease and reveal the techniques...

Tumor Neurosurgery provides information on the basic knowledge and clinical management required for optimal care of neurooncology patients. Providing an up-to-date synopsis of the field of tumor neurosurgery, the book covers the most common sites and tumor pathologies encountered by neurosurgeons. The chapters are organized under broad topics, including investigative studies, perioperative care and the role of newer techniques. The clinical management of CNS tumors in adults and children is described, including spinal tumors, both intradural and extradural. This book provides coverage of...
