About this title

Review:

"A compilation of 71 case studies submitted by an international authorship of well-known and respected senior neurogeons, The key points section for each study is extremely insightful...I highly recommend this book and feel that it is priced appropriately. This volume will be an important addition to residency training program libraries and to those neurosurgeons involved in the practice of complex vascular or skull base surgery."--Journal of Neurosurgery

From the Back Cover:

Benefit from the expertise of world-renowned neurosurgeons, who share their strategies for managing a wide range of cerebral and spinal conditions involving vascular and tumor pathology. Presented in a case format, the book details problems, history, surgical tactics, procedures, and postoperative course, followed by a valuable section of comments from the experts. You will find insights on such complex procedures as clipping of giant intracranial aneurysms, removal of brain stem tumors, bypass surgery with radial artery graft and more. The resulting work is a compilation that explains some of the most difficult clinical problems in the field while enhancing your ability to treat more routine cases.

By turning their talents to the toughest cases, Dr. Kobayashi and his colleagues have created a reference that is certain to advance the practice of neurosurgery at every level, with treatments that are more accurate, less invasive, and safe.
