This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A decade has passed since systematic studies were initiated in the USA in an attempt at establishing the experimental basis for a surgical technique which was to prove an effective tool in combatting one of the most common diseases, i.e. cerebrovascular accidents. The development of such intricate vasculosurgical techniques as are required for extra intracranial arterial bypass operations would not have been possible without the aid of the surgical microscope, which had been designed some years earlier. In the past few years increasing emphasis has been placed on establishing clear-cut indications for the bypass operation, because satisfactory long-term results are unlikely to be obtained without them. Needless to say that this requires a close cooperation of the neurosurgeon with a team composed of neurologists, internists, radiologists, and pathologists. Fortunately enough, cooperation between the services of the University of Vienna Medical School proved to be exemplary. While there has been no lack of efforts by major medical centers both in Europe and the overseas countries to perfect bypass operations for cerebrovascular accidents, a comprehensive monograph reviewing all medical and operative problems involved in microvascular surgery for strokes was badly missed by many.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ***IF YOU WANT TO UPDATE THE INFORMATION ON YOUR TITLE SHEET, THEN YOU MUST UPDATE COPY IN THE "PRODUCT INFORMATION COPY" FIELD. COPY IN THE "TIPSHEET COPY" FIELD DOES NOT APPEAR ON TITLE SHEETS.*** This book arms any physician with the evidence and tools they need to help patients who have had or at risk of having a stroke in preventing stroke. Market / Audience PRIMARY: Neurologists (18,000 in US) Cardiologists (30,000 in US) SECONDARY: Internists (200,00) About the Book Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the US (with cardiac disease and cancer being number one and two). Annually, 795,000 people in the US suffer a new or recurrent stroke. Approximately 140,000 people die from stroke each year, a figure that has been declining because of what we have learned about daily aspirin, smoking cessation, diet, and surgical procedures to prevent new or recurrent strokes. The 6 million patients alive today who've survived stroke are at the highest risk, yet anyone of a certain age or who has had a "mini-storke," is at higher risk. While more is known than ever about how to prevent stroke, there is still great variability in how stroke prevention is implemented regionally. Challenges in getting patients to comply with stroke prevention measures are also a concern. This book provides an evidence-based approach and practical tools to help any physician help their patients avoid a new or a recurrant stroke. Key Selling Features Makes stroke prevention easy to teach, and easy to comply with.

Download or read book Modern Neurosurgery 1 written by Mario Brock and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 800 papers were presented by neurosurgeons from 66 countries during the 7th International Congress of Neurological Surgery, held in Munich on 12-18 July 1981. With the present scope and problems of neurosurgery as its theme, the congress achieved its aims in making possible the exchange and dissemination of new knowledge and ideas and in facilitating personal contact between neurosurgeons from aU parts of the world. Of such importance are the regional differences within our branch of science that we should spare no effort in acquainting ourselves with those neurosurgical problems which lie beyond the boundaries of our local horizons. From the vast number of papers the editor has selected those whose high scientific standard merits greater exposure than that given by the conference itself. I should like to thank the editor for his work and Springer-Verlag for their involvement in our disci pline. It is to be hoped that this book will find a worldwide audience, in accordance with the intentions of the World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies. Prof. Dr. K.-A. Bushe President of the Congress v Editor's Preface This is the first volume of a new series which aims to provide an overview of the state of the art of neurosurgery every four years. It will contain papers covering various fields of our specialty, selected from among those presented at each International Congress of Neurological Surgery.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 13th volume of Advances in Neurosurgery presents thos.e papers held at the 35th Annual Meeting of the German Society of Neurosurgery in Hannover, June 13-16, 1984. Of 150 papers submitted, the program com mittee of the Society chose 69 for presentation. I would like to thank Professors Bock, Brock, Jensen, Wenker, and Wlillenweber for their as sistance in the selection. It was the intention of the President of the Congress at this meeting to lay special scientific emphasis on discussion. For this reason the number of papers had to be limited even more than usual in order to give all participants the opportunity for questions and the presenta tion of their own experience. The main topic of the first day was Extra-Intracranial Anastomoses. Here the operative experience and the long-term results of these operations in the German-speaking countries were reviewed. This discussion was preceded a day earlier by a satellite symposium on the possibilities of the prophylaxis and treatment of ischemic neurological deficits fol lowing subarachnoid hemorrhage by means of calcium antagonists. Microsurgery at the Edge of the Tentorium was the second main topic. In co operation with the SOCiety's microneurosurgery working group, only a small number of lectures were planned, but the topic was covered thor oughly in a round-table discussion.

Download or read book Advances and Technical Standards in Neurosurgery written by J. D. Pickard and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As an addition to the European postgraduate training system for young neurosurgeons, we began to publish in 1974 this series of Advances and Technical Standards in Neurosurgery which was later sponsored by the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies. This series was first discussed in 1972 at a combined meeting of the Italian and German Neurosurgical Societies in Taormina, the founding fathers of the series being Jean Brihaye, Bernard Pertuiset, Fritz Loew and Hugo Krayenbuhl. Thus were established the principles of European co operation which have been born from the European spirit, flourished in the European Association, and have been associated throughout with this senes. The fact that the English language is now the international medium for communication at European scientificconferences is a great asset in terms of mutual understanding. Therefore we have decided to publish all contri butions in English, regardless of the native language of the authors. All contributions are submitted to the entire editorial board before publication of any volume for scrutiny and suggestions for revision. Our series is not intended to compete with the publications of original scientificpapers in other neurosurgical journals. Our intention is, rather, to present fields of neurosurgery and related areas in which important recent advances have been made. The contributions are written by specialists in the given fieldsand constitute the first part of each volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A certain standardization has now been introduced into the operative techniques of vascular surgery after the stormy developments of the last few decades. It is to make the knowledge gained in those years more widely available that this operative manual Vascular Surgery has been compiled. It contains contributions from numerous authors at European centers of vascular surgery. Both the young surgeon in training and the more experienced surgeon continuing training will find in this book all the necessary instructions for the diagnosis, preoperative preparation, and reconstructive surgery of the arteries, veins, and lymph vessels (the coronary vessels are excluded from this book, as they are covered separately). The chapters are structured according to a uniform scheme, with sections on special anatomy, indications, surgical tactics, and operative technique. The dynamics of individual operations are illustrated, step by step, in sequences of clear, multicolored figures. Aftercare and alternative angiologic therapies are covered. The vascular surgeon will find here new variants on the usual operative techniques and much stimulating discussion of complications and their prevention and treatment.
