Download or read book Arthroplasty of the Spine written by Robert Gunzburg and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joint replacement is a logical step in the treatment of severe joint pathologies with irreversible lesions resisting conservative therapy. At the spinal level, arthrodesis became, very early, the gold standard of treatment for severe intervertebral disc pathologies. The next logical step was to envision functional replacement, and this step was taken as early as 1956, when the first intervertebral implant was described. However, it took many more years and a great variety of proposed implant designs before clinical applications could be attempted.

Download or read book Spinal Arthroplasty written by Richard Guyer and published by Thieme Medical Publishers. This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an exciting time for those involved in the care of patients with back pain. Generally, the goal in treating back pain patients is to reduce pain and increase function. Traditionally in spine surgery, as was the case many years ago for other joints, this goal has been pursued by eliminating motion of the symptomatic joint. Great progress was made years ago for hips and knees with the development of total joint replacements that allowed painless motion of what had been a painful and disabling degenerative joint. Since the mid 1980s similar progress has been made for the spine. Spinal Arthroplasty: A New Era in Spinal Care provides a comprehensive overview of the philosophy of motion-sparing technology in the evolving arena of spinal arthroplasty. This book describes the type of patients being treated with these devices, the historical development of the implants, the techniques and technologies of spinal arthroplasty, clinical results, and a preview of the possibilities for the next generation of treatments. The contributing authors are experts in their respective areas of spinal arthroplasty, and, in some cases, they are the inventors of the devices. The experience and wisdom the editors and authors share give the reader a balanced understanding of the importance of motion preservation and stability in the management of degenerative disease. Spinal Arthroplasty: A New Era in Spinal Care will serve as an introduction to the less experienced in this philosophy of care as well as a reference tool for more experienced spinal care providers endeavoring to gain a greater understanding of the science that supports the preservation of motion in spinal reconstruction.

Download or read book Cervical Spine written by Pier Paolo Maria Menchetti and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-02 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book details the current status of cervical MISS for expert surgeons, young surgeons or clinicians, and residents and fellows with little or no experience on this field of surgery. Because of the involvement of different and highly trained specialists from all over the world, the aim of this book is to satisfy the requirements for knowing the most advanced surgical techniques and their application. Also included are the indications and surgical techniques involving an open standard approach, giving a most exhaustive knowledge of the cervical spine surgery. Due to the difficulty of finding books with both minimal invasive cervical spine surgery and more conventional standard “open” surgery, the benefit of this book is to permit the surgeons and residents and medical doctors, to have a more complete and immediate knowledge of the topics. Due to the scientific multidisciplinary nature of the MISS, several professionals such as orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, radiologists, anesthesiologists and pain management specialists, have been involved in order to create a book in which all the aspects of MISS have been treated.

Download or read book Personalized Hip and Knee Joint Replacement written by Charles Rivière and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book describes and illustrates the surgical techniques, implants, and technologies used for the purpose of personalized implantation of hip and knee components. This new and flourishing treatment philosophy offers important benefits over conventional systematic techniques, including component positioning appropriate to individual anatomy, improved surgical reproducibility and prosthetic performance, and a reduction in complications. The techniques described in the book aim to reproduce patients’ native anatomy and physiological joint laxity, thereby improving the prosthetic hip/knee kinematics and functional outcomes in the quest of the forgotten joint. They include kinematically aligned total knee/total hip arthroplasty, partial knee replacement, and hip resurfacing. The relevance of available and emerging technological tools for these personalized approaches is also explained, with coverage of, for example, robotics, computer-assisted surgery, and augmented reality. Contributions from surgeons who are considered world leaders in diverse fields of this novel surgical philosophy make this open access book will invaluable to a wide readership, from trainees at all levels to consultants practicing lower limb surgery
