Bøger i Advances and Technical Standards in Neurosurgery serien

Saint-Pierre: Percutaneous Biopsy through the Foramen Ovale for Parasellar lesions: Surgical anatomy, Method and Indications. - S Fauser, J Zentner: Management of complex cortical dysplasia in epilepsy

This book offers an update on several basic and clinical problems in neurosurgery compiled by internationally recognized experts.  This multi-thematic volume  will touch on a variety of topics: from  the role of women neurosurgeons in the last hundred year of the specialty history, to the pathogenesis of spinal dysraphism, to the convection-enhanced delivery of intracerebral antineoplastic drugs in children, through a review of methods and applications. The intraoperative cerebral blood flow monitoring in neurosurgery will be also discussed, offering again a comprehensive review of contemporary technologies and emerging perspectives.  As for the  technical standards, the book will describe the multimodality approach to cerebral gliomas, the management of thalamic tumors, the intracavitary treatment of craniopharyngiomas, the long term results of spasticity treatments,  the surgical treatment of  spinal vascular malformations, the management of idiopathic and refractory syringomyelia, offering at the same time an update of peripheral nerve surgery. All the chapters have to be considered an advance in the relative fields,  in cerebral pathophysiology and in clinical management.   Approaching the issue of technical standards  in the everyday clinical practice of neurosurgery,  this book is of great interest for neurosurgeons, neurologists and orthopaedists.

This volume of Advances and Technical Standards in Neurosurgery covers some important new developments in functional neurosurgery and endovascular therapy. Endovascular treatment of a variety of lesions is now common practice and the state of the art in endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke is reviewed.

Covering the latest advances in diagnosing and treating resistant epilepsy in children, this volume explores new insights into developmental epileptogenesis, temporal lobe surgery, palliative techniques and many other topics now enhancing our medical options.

This volume reviews standard treatments for spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas, examining the anatomy of arteries and veins of the sylvian fissure, as well as microsurgical advances and the development of modern therapeutic strategies in intracranial meningiomas.

As an addition to the European postgraduate training system for young neurosurgeons we began to publish in 1974 this series of Advances and Technical Standards in Neurosurgery which was later sponsored by the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies.

Part of the series sponsored by the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies. The Advances section presents fields of neurosurgery and related areas. The Technical Standards section features detailed descriptions of standard procedures to assist young neurosurgeons in their post-graduate training.
