From reviews of previous volumes: Ranks with the very best previous attempts at codifying neurosurgical operations. The attention to detail is excellent... -The New England Journal of Medicine A valuable addition to any library...I would recommend it to all neurosurgeons with an interest in cerebrovascular disease...The operative photographs are of extremely high quality.-Chicago Medicine The final volume in the acclaimed series provides coverage of the anatomy, surgical approaches, and techniques involved in performing cerebral revascularization. Filled with over 2,000 vibrant images, it provides the visual instruction neurosurgeons need. Highlights include: A complete section detailing intracranial vasculature and anatomy of the spinal cord A case material section featuring a rich diversity of clinical situations to illustrate a variety of microsurgical techniques Thorough coverage of bypasses, reconstructions, and the use of endarterectomy to achieve revascularization Presentation of both surgical and endovascular techniques for re-establishing blood flow through the carotid and cerebral arteries Information on tumors of the spinal cord and spinal vascular malformations, particularly cavernous and arteriovenous malformations
A highly-anticipated addition to Thieme's classic color atlas collection, Color Atlas of Cerebral Revascularization focuses on cerebral bypass techniques pioneered by leading surgeons at the world-renowned Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix, Arizona. Each procedure is presented with intraoperative photographs and exquisite anatomical illustrations to help surgeons master the complex microsurgical anatomy and subtle surgical technique used in managing the potential onset and condition of stroke and other causes of cerebral ischemia. Key Features: Side-by-side photo and illustration format aids in interpretation of intricate surgical procedures More than 1300 figures elucidate clinical cases from the Barrow Neurological Institute and other centers of neurosurgical excellence A DVD, featuring more than 30 related surgical cases and narrated by the authors, is included with the book Cases illustrate how to successfully achieve revascularization for conditions such as moyamoya disease, recurrent aneurysms after endovascular treatment, giant aneurysms, vertebral artery insufficiency, and severe stenosis The vascular anatomy related to each bypass technique is illustrated and described in the sections showcasing the clinical cases treated by the technique This comprehensive atlas is an ideal reference for practicing neurosurgeons, neurosurgical residents, and interventional neuroradiologists, and it will be a relevant volume in their medical library for years to come.
Refinements in the neurosurgical armamentarium continue to push the borders of neurosurgery forward. Lesions considered inoperable a few years ago can now be resected, especially in the region of the skull base. These new developments, plus rapid technological innovations in microneurosurgery, have dramatically altered the scope of modern neurosurgery. Now, with Volume 2 of the acclaimed Color Atlas of Microneurosurgery, the distinguished authors provide detailed descriptions of surgical anatomy and the major neurosurgical approaches to cerebrovascular lesions. You will find coverage of aneurysms, arteriovenuous malformations, cerebrovascular malformations, and vascular compression – all derived from a wide range of etiologies. Divided into three sections on anatomy, surgical approaches, and underlying pathology, the book demonstrates the most innovative new techniques, procedures and approaches as performed in hundreds of clinical cases. The result is the most detailed and comprehensive microneurosurgical atlas ever compiled, an ideal reference for practicing neurosurgeons and residents–in–training.
The first volume of this updated and revised edition deals with the surgical resection of intracranial tumors. Individual chapters focus on specific intracranial regions, and provide neuroanatomic descriptions of all the major neurosurgical approaches in detail.

This book has been expertly written and illustrated for patients with brain aneurysms and their families and for physicians and paramedical professionals interested in learning more about this field. The book contains detailed information about the investigation and screening of brain aneurysms and critical chapters related to their treatment. A comprehensive section on coma caused by ruptured brain aneurysms discusses the difficult choices facing both families and physicians during the management of critically ill aneurysm and brain hemorrhage patients. The book explains the process of informed consent for the investigation and treatment of brain aneurysms and the rationale for the choices given and decisions made. The risks and benefits of various procedures encountered by brain aneurysm patients and how the procedures are performed are described in detail. Responses to frequently asked questions regarding "clipping versus coiling" aneurysms are provided, as are step-by-step details of the relevant open surgical and endovascular procedures. An in-depth chapter devoted to rehabilitation and recovery after treatment presents information on what patients can expect and need to be aware of during this process. Chapters also cover treatment-related complications, wound issues, follow-up after coiling or clipping, and recurrent or persistent brain aneurysms after treatment. Finally, detailed "case histories" of persons with unruptured and ruptured brain aneurysms personalize the experience of having an aneurysm. Being diagnosed with a brain aneurysm and undergoing treatment are some of the most significant events patients and their families are likely to experience. This practical book is a must-read for such persons.
Current techniques for clinical management This book presents a comprehensive overview of the basic science and current clinical knowledge on cavernous malformations of the brain and spinal cord. Cavernous Malformations of the Brain and Spinal Cord begins by covering general aspects of the disease, including the natural history, molecular biology, pathological processes, genetic basis, neuroradiology, and classification of cavernous malformations. Separate chapters then address the various types of cavernous malformations, thoroughly describing the clinical presentation and management approaches for each clinical situation. Incisive review of recent literature sheds light on topics of incidence, location, and outcomes. Features: Clinical insights regarding indications for surgery, surgical techniques, outcomes, and prognostic factors drawn from the authors' extensive experiences Discussion of treatment of patients with specific disorders, such as epilepsy Coverage of cavernous malformations as dynamic lesions with descriptions of de novo formation and lesions induced by irradiation Neurosurgeons, neurologists, and neuroradiologists, especially those caring for patients with seizures and hemorrhagic stroke, will benefit from the wealth of information in this complete reference.

Annotation Surgery of the Cerebellopontine Angleis a single volume text which meshes the information available in surgical atlases with clinical disease entities. The inclusion of an interactive atlas adds to the importance of the text and complements it, and also obviates the need to reference multiple sources. This allows the project to stand out from its competitors and broadens its appeal.Organized in four sections, the first discusses anatomy, radiology and neurology of the temporal bone and CPA in detail. The second section will describe the surgical approaches and will include the latest developments in such approaches. It will include separate chapters describing the newest innovations in minimally invasive approaches and technological advances in cranial nerve monitoring. Section 3 is intended to synthesize the latest information on the treatment of acoustic neuromas, while Section 4 will do the same for non-schwannomatous lesions. The text is designed to provide a detailed exposition of the treatment options regarding lesions occurring in this region of the skull base.
