Trauma
Progress in traumatology of the vertebral spine has been restrained for a long time by two hindering factors. The first obstacle is presented by the differences in approach and a conflict of competences. The neurosurgeons, considering only the spinal chord, have confined themselves to indications for laminectomy, an insufficient and usually ineffective intervention. The orthopedic surgeons, on the other hand, obsessed by the fear of medullary lesions, have long hesitated to apply the fundamental rules for the treatment of fractures, namely precise reduction followed by strict immobilization, thus depriving themselves of the efficacy of radiculomedul lar decompression and of the protection th...

Faces of Inequality
This book defends an original and pluralist theory of when and why discrimination wrongs people, in particular, through unfair subordination, through the violation of their right to a particular deliberative freedom, or through the denial to them of access to a basic good.
The Craniovertebral Region in Chronic Inflammatory Rheumatic Diseases
Radiology, the youngest of the major medical sciences, has undergone an extraordinary technical evolution since the discovery of X-rays. It began with the development of the different types of tomography and the adoption of many contrast agents, then proceeded rapidly to serioscopy, subtraction of images, direct enlargement, echography, thermography, and xerography. Today, even before all these innovations have come into common use, another branch of radiologic technology has evolved: computerized (axial) tomography. More than just an innovation, its true dimensions are unfore seeable. Radiology has become in less than a century an indispensable adjunct to the practice of medicine. The devel...
Radiologic Anatomy of the Brain
Despite all recent advances, the most important progress in neuroradiol ogy has been in our knowledge of the anatomy of the nervous system. DANDY'S injection of ventricles and cisterns with air, SICARD'S studies of the epidural and subarachoid space with lipiodol, MONIZ'S work on cerebral arteries and veins, and, more recently, DJINDJIAN'S and DI CHIRO'S investiga tions of spinal arteries, have modified, refined and expanded current knowl edge of anatomy of the central nervous system. As described by LINDGREN, "the neuroradiologist dissects the region of interest with x-rays like a surgeon with a scalpel". In fact, neuroradiologic examination is nothing less than an anatomic survey in vivo, ...
Atlas of Neurosurgical Techniques
Complete state-of-the-art coverage of surgical techniques for the spine and peripheral nerves, engaging the full range of approaches--anterior, anterolateral, posterior, and spanning posteriolateral--for these operations. Each section opens with an in-dept discussion of pathology, etiology, and differential diagnosis to help master the underlying scientific principles of diseases and conditions of the spine and peripheral nerves. The authors then present technique-oriented chapters containing step-by-step descriptions of surgical procedures.
Reconstruction of Upper Cervical Spine and Craniovertebral Junction
An illustrative manual for general spine surgeons, this text atlas covers all currently available techniques of upper cervical spine and craniovertebral junction reconstruction. All the surgical risks and benefits are discussed and compared with the outcome of more than 300 surgeries of this region. The surgical procedures are demonstrated step-by-step in instructive drawings and illustrations describing the approach, technique of implant introduction and spine reconstruction. A special focus is on realtime and virtual navigation techniques as well as potential complications and their avoidance.
Imaging Anatomy of the Knee Region
In this atlas anatomical slices of the knee region are studied in the three fundamental spatial planes: frontal, sagittal, and horizontal; furthermore the corresponding views obtained by computed tomography of the same anatomical specimens, the equivalent horizontal CT views of the knee region alive and magnetic resonance images of the knee alive observed at the same levels in the same spatial planes are depicted. This method allows identification of all articular and periarticular structures and reveals their shape, position, and principal relations. The precision with which the anatomical slices are analyzed facilitates comparison with pathological material and with images using methods other than those employed here, such as echography.
