Minimally Invasive Spinal Deformity Surgery
Contemporary spinal surgeons, whether orthopedic or neurosurgeons, are increasingly recognizing minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) as a desirable option to manage advanced degenerative diseases. MISS techniques minimize blood loss, surgical site pain, and speed recovery. Thus, the marriage of MISS with adult spinal deformity was a natural one. Currently, the techniques, technologies, and education of surgeons have finally reached a point where MISS deformity surgeries are becoming commonplace. Nevertheless, the field is young enough that no comprehensive texts have addressed the unique challenges faced by surgeons exploring this evolving field. This book will fill the gap.
The Cervical Spine
The Cervical Spine is the most comprehensive, current, and authoritative reference on the cervical spine. Prepared by internationally recognized members of The Cervical Spine Research Society Editorial Committee, the Fifth Edition presents new information, new technologies, and advances in clinical decision making. The text provides state-of-the-art coverage of basic and clinical research, diagnostic methods, and medical and surgical treatments, bringing together the latest thinking of the foremost orthopaedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, neurologists, rheumatologists, radiologists, anatomists, and bioengineers. Chapters cover anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, neurologic and functional evaluation, and radiographic evaluation and address the full range of pediatric problems, fractures, spinal cord injuries, tumors, infections, inflammatory conditions, degenerative disorders, and complications. Accompanying the text is a website with the fully searchable text plus a color image bank.
The Spine
"Organized according to the cervical, thoracolumbar, and lumbar regions of the spine, the 25 contributions in this collection describe the steps involved in performing delicate procedures on the spinal column, illustrate operative techniques in color photographs and drawings, and outline complications and pitfalls to be avoided. The second edition replaces over half of the previous articles with new ones. Annotation : 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)"--[source inconnue].
The Evidence for Neurosurgery
This textbook aims to examine some of the most controversial areas of neurological surgery by applying the current evidence to illuminate our understanding of the pathophysiology of each disease and the outcomes from surgical and non-surgical treatments. The Evidence for Neurosurgery is a textbook that will challenge current dogmas in many instances, provide an organized framework for understanding where current evidence can be applied clinically, and illustrate where gaps in the evidence exist and how these deficiencies may be filled in the future. In the first chapter, "Clinical Evidence", the reader will gain an understanding of the levels of clinical evidence and will learn what types of study designs are appropriate and in which situations. The textbook is then divided into six sections: Spine, Vascular, Tumor, Pediatrics, Functional, and Trauma.
Spinal Deformities
The definitive authoritative textbook on spinal deformities from the Scoliosis Research Society Spinal Deformities: The Comprehensive Text, Second Edition, edited by renowned spinal deformity surgeons Christopher J. DeWald and his father Ronald L. DeWald, is a long-awaited, authoritative, one-stop resource that covers the breadth and depth of this specialized field. The first edition textbook edited by Ronald DeWald attempted to help formulate a Scoliosis Research Society (SRS) core curriculum for spinal deformity to meet the educational needs of both aspiring and seasoned spine deformity surgeons. This second edition edited by father and son expands and reorganizes the core curriculum conce...
Dynamic Reconstruction of the Spine
Dynamic Reconstruction of the Spine is an essential reference on the current techniques and equipment for dynamic stabilization of the spine.Covering both anterior and posterior approaches to dynamic stabilization, the book presents a complete overview of the state-of-the-art technologies in spinal arthroplasty and instrumentation for dynamic stabilization. Each chapter of this authoritative text focuses on a different technology. The authors illuminate the key concepts of each implant device and provide concise discussion of the rationale, indications, contraindications, surgical techniques, and postoperative results. Highlights: Synthesizes the vast amount of literature on the newest implantable artificial disks for restoring and preserving motion of the spine Features contributions from the inventors of or experts on these systems Demonstrates key concepts of instrumentation and techniques with more than 400 instructional illustrations Dynamic Reconstruction of the Spine is an indispensable reference for all spine specialists, neurosurgeons, orthopedic surgeons, radiologists, fellows, and residents seeking the latest information on this emerging technology.
Spinal Deformity
Although there are a number of excellent books dedicated to spinal deformities, this text employs a case-based format which offers the advantage of easy readability. This format will allow the reader to better synthesize the dense information encompassing spinal deformity complications and pearls to avoid them. Example cases highlight the importance of appropriate diagnosis, radiographic assessment, classification, surgical decision making, and complication avoidance. In addition, complication management is emphasized since complications will occur regardless of skill level, experience, or meticulous technique given the complex nature of spinal deformity. Written by key thought leaders, this book not only provides state of the art concepts and techniques but also provides pearls and tips to manage and avoid complications. This book will be useful to the spinal surgeon of any experience level who is interested in optimizing their care for patients with symptomatic spinal deformity. In addition, the concepts presented in this text will be valuable to residents and fellows training in spinal surgery.
