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...
