Add to basketPathology of Neck Injury, Second Edition is a practical guide and reference to all pathological aspects of neck injury. It covers a broad spectrum of trauma to the neck region, reflecting the experiences of many distinguished pathologists and those of author, Peter Vanezis, who has more than 50 years of expertise in the field.
This highly illustrated text begins by explaining the anatomy of the neck region as it relates to trauma investigation and the various techniques required for its examination. Coverage goes on to describe penetrating injuries, comprising mainly sharp force trauma and firearm injuries. Asphyxial and related deaths are subsequently discussed in a series of chapters, before the focus turns to the examination of blunt impact, non‑compressive injuries. Here special reference is made to their common occurrence in road traffic accidents. Finally, this book concludes with environmental, toxic, and iatrogenic causes of injury. Where appropriate, and especially with regard to penetrating and compressive modes of trauma, the interpretation of injuries and their differentiation into various categories such as homicide, suicide, or accident has been addressed.
Pathology of Neck Injury, Second Edition is an essential guide for all those involved in the relevant specialties of pathology, surgery, and forensic medicine – particularly pathologists, both qualified and in training, but also to clinical forensic practitioners, trauma specialists, ENT surgeons, and general surgeons.
