No other book covers as extensively all aspects of peripheral nerve surgery. This includes the pathology and pathophysiology of compression neuropathies, traumatic nerve lesions and nerve tumours, and their treatment with various techniques. All body regions are described adequately. The second part of the book deals with palliative surgery for reconstruction of lost function. This includes a comprehensive array of muscle and tendon transfers, functional muscle transplantation and intramuscular neurotisation.
Every neurosurgeon as well as many surgeons in other disciplines, including plastic and orthopedic surgeons, may unexpectedly be confronted with an entrapment syndrome or a nerve trauma. With a view to preventing costly transfers to expert clinics, this manual for practitioners offers optimized step-by-step figures illustrating how best to approach every relevant nerve lesion. Clear advice is also provided on differential diagnosis from inflammatory neuropathies, which will assist in avoiding false indications for surgery. This is a true manual for practitioners that offers excellent guidance for all surgeons while in the operating theater.
This important, new reference discusses both the common and uncommon emergencies encountered in ER and Critical Care Units using a problem-based approach. Addresses everything from immediate evaluation and management, through stabilization, to long-term care and rehabilitation. Features a chapter on neuroemergency nursing!
Gian Lorenzo Bernini (1598-1680) schuf seine Kunstwerke in einer Zeit, in der die konzeptistische Poetik (concettismo) das ultimative Regelwerk moderner Dichtung darstellte. In dieser Studie wird die Rhetorizität der Kunstwerke Gian Lorenzo Berninis vor dem Hintergrund konzeptistischer Poetik als einer Epochen bestimmenden Rhetorik beschrieben und interpretiert. Das erfolgt mit dem Rückgriff auf Texte wie Emanuele Tesauros «Cannocchiale aristotelico» (1654) und «Idea delle perfette Imprese» (um 1620) oder Matteo Peregrinis «Delle acutezze» (1639). Exemplarisch werden drei Hauptwerke Berninis in Rom untersucht: das Monument der Mathilde von Tuszien und die Vierungspfeiler in St. Peter sowie die Kapelle Cornaro in S. Maria della Vittoria. Durch die Verbindung der Werkinterpretationen mit einer an konzeptistischer Poetik ausgerichteten Emblematik gelingt eine differenzierte Auslegung der Bild-Text-Einheiten, die die Werke Berninis bestimmen.
