Volume IVB describes surgical approaches, strategies, and management
techniques for specific tumors in their typical locations, surgical outcomes and
results, instruments, and laboratory training. It covers also the related
disciplines neuroradiology and neuroanesthesia. The last installment in this
well-known series.

Best Evidence for Spine Surgery provides representative cases that help you determine the optimal surgical interventions for your patients. Drs. Rahul Jandial and Steven R. Garfin, and a balanced team of preeminent neurosurgeons and orthopaedists, address the trend toward a more collaborative approach between spine and orthopaedic surgery. This easy-to-read, evidence-based resource also features -Tips from the masters- for a quick review of important elements of diagnosis and treatment and online access at www.expertconsult.com with fully searchable text and downloadable images.

Drs. Rao and D'Ambrosio will devote twelve chapters to brain metastases, covering all areas including the epidemiology, neuroimaging, and molecular biology of brain metastases, as well as surgical, medical, and radiosurgical management. The issue will also include chapters on evidence-based guidelines, investigational therapies, neurocognitive and quality of life measures, and more.

This issue of Neurosurgery Clinics will focus on Functional Imaging. Guest Editors Alexandra Golby and Peter Black will divide the issue into three parts: Technique, Neurological Functions and Clinical Applications, and Special Neurosurgical Situations.

The contributions in this volume, presented at the 5^th International Hydrocephalus Workshop in May 2010 in Crete, Greece, give the present state-of-the-art in timely diagnosis and treatment of hydrocephalus.
The topics covered include advances in management of both pediatric and adult hydrocephalus, identifying shunt responders, clinical experiences in endoscopic third ventriculostomy, clinical trials, pathophysiology, experimental studies, and the new classification for hydrocephalus.

The first volume of this updated and revised edition deals with the surgical resection of intracranial tumors. Individual chapters focus on specific intracranial regions, and provide neuroanatomic descriptions of all the major neurosurgical approaches in detail.

With Volume 2, the distinguished authors provide detailed descriptions of surgical anatomy and the major neurosurgical approaches to cerebrovascular lesions. You will find coverage of aneurysms, arteriovenuous malformations, cerebrovascular malformations, and vascular compression - all derived from a wide range of etiologies....

Refinements in the neurosurgical armamentarium continue to push the
borders of neurosurgery forward. Lesions considered inoperable a few years ago
can now be resected, especially in the region of the skull base. These new
developments, plus rapid technological innovations in microneurosurgery, have
dramatically altered the scope of modern neurosurgery.

Now, with Volume 2 of the
acclaimed Color Atlas of Microneurosurgery, the distinguished authors provide
detailed descriptions of surgical anatomy and the major neurosurgical approaches
to...

M.D.

Thieme is proud to present this reprint of M. G. Yasargil's seminal work in
Microneurosurgery.

Professor Yasargil began his neurosurgical residency at the
University of Zurich more than 50 years ago. During the course of his remarkable
career, he was instrumental in developing and refining many of the tools and
techniques that even today remain indispensable gold...
