Download or read book Intracranial Aneurysms written by Andrew J. Ringer and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2018-05-21 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intracranial aneurysm result from complex interactions between cerebrovascular anatomy, vascular injury, and adaptive remodeling of the arterial wall and represent a cerebrovascular disorder with the potential for substantial morbidity and mortality. Most intracranial aneurysms occur in the larger arteries near the skull base, in or around the circle of Willis, but variants may appear virtually anywhere in the cerebral vasculature. The aneurysm can leak or rupture, causing life-threatening bleeding, and is the most common cause of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage, the third most common form of stroke. Intracranial aneurysms affect about 1 in 10,000 people per year in the United States (approximately 27,000). Intracranial Aneurysms will address the natural history, biology, and basic management principles and treatment of aneurysms. The chapters also explore the unique features of each type or location of aneurysm while considering the medical, surgical, and endovascular options. Contributions are by members of the Endovascular Neurosurgery Research Group, a group of recognized expert neurosurgeons who specialize in cerebrovascular and endovascular management of aneurysms. Comprehensively covers the basic mechanisms, history, management and treatment of intracranial aneurysms Written for researchers, residents and clinical practitioners in clinical neuroscience, neurology and neurosurgery Contains contributions by expert neurosurgeons of the Endovascular Neurosurgery Research Group

Download or read book Giant Intracranial Aneurysms written by Naci Kocer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-26 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This atlas focuses on the imaging and treatment options available for giant intracranial aneurysms since 1990s in the beginning of the so-called modern endovascular era. During this period, there were significant advances made in the therapy of small intracranial aneurysms though the treatment of giant aneurysms continued to pose an insurmountable challenge. At the turn of this century, this grim scenario gradually improved with better understanding of the pathophysiology of giant intracranial aneurysms. This changed scenario in giant intracranial aneurysm therapy has been illustrated with the aid of informative clinical case studies. The clinical presentation of giant aneurysms in adults and children is described as are the merits of different imaging modalities explained and illustrated. Extensive consideration has been given to modern fusion imaging that has improved our insight into the nature of the disease. Endovascular treatment approaches (including illustrative open surgical approaches) and reconstructive and deconstructive strategies are fully documented, with careful attention given to factors that influence management strategies, treatment choice and complications.The atlas will be a valuable reference and practical aid for neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, fellowship trainees, postgraduate & graduate students.
Download or read book Atlas of Sellar and Parasellar Lesions written by Gabriel Zada and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-10-27 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents, in a stepwise and interactive fashion, approximately 75 cases that reflect the wide spectrum of pathology encountered in this region.

Download or read book Giant Intracranial Aneurysms written by Yves Keravel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first aneurysms explored by such pioneers of neurosurgery as Cushing and Dandy were the giant intracranial aneurysms. These giant aneurysms present many therapeutic difficulties and, because of their unique anatomical features and size, may present in a multitude of ways. With the advent of specialized imaging techniques such as computed tomography (CT), mag netic resonance imaging (MRI) and selective angiography, preoperative diag nosis today is most often accomplished without difficulty. However, com pletely thrombosed giant aneurysms may mimic other lesions with mass effect (such as basilar meningiomas, chordomas or chondromas) and their true anatomical shapes and relations to other cranial structures can only be ascer tained by direct operative inspection. Due to their morphological features (thrombosed, nonthrombosed, par tially thrombosed, fusiform), anatomical variations and difficult locations, giant aneurysms present new challenges for the modern neurosurgeon. Al though microsurgical techniques have rendered direct surgical treatment of giant intracranial aneurysms safer, elimination of the aneurysm without dis turbing the hemodynamics continues to be problematic. Some of these lesions have relatively small necks and can therefore be clipped fairly easily. Others have large necks, are fusiform, or contain perforators; how best to treat these lesions is a question still unresolved by presentday neurosurgery.
Download or read book Consults in Obstetric Anesthesiology written by Suzanne K. W. Mankowitz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text addresses the need for a book specifically aimed at obstetric anesthesia and covers topics such as pulmonary, cardiac renal, hepatic, hematologic, neurologic, endocrine and other diseases. The real anesthetic challenge arises when patients present to Labor and Delivery with unusual or complicated medical problems and, in recent years, a few of the larger institutions have developed an Obstetric Anesthesiology Consultation Service to prepare for the management of these patients. While most pregnant women who present to Labor and Delivery require anesthetic intervention, they typically meet the anesthesiologist for the first time in labor. Since the majority of laboring women are healthy without significant comorbidities, this does not present much of a challenge to the anesthesiologist and the anesthetic management tends to be straight-forward with favorable outcomes. However, using this new model, the anesthesiologist has the opportunity to discuss the various treatment modalities and potentially suggest diagnostic testing to be performed prior to delivery, similar to the pre-operative testing that is done in other surgical environments.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a great privilege to write the foreword for this classical work of Professor Charles Drake. There is no doubt that intracranial aneurysms have existed since the beginning of time. This terrifying disease of the brain arteries, with its dramatic consequences for the patient, has surely been observed in all human collectives, although clear definition and description in the literature began only 300 years ago. During the last century, clinical signs and symptoms have been carefully observed and analyzed, and 100 years ago, the first attempts were made for surgical treatment, such as the ligature of external and internal carotid and vertebral arteries. With the introduction of angiography, an entirely new dimension of diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the vascular diseases of CNS, was accomplished. In the years between 1945 and 1970, the neurosurgeon was increasingly stimulated to directly eliminate intracranial aneurysms. The most respected and avoided location, the aneurysms at the bifurcation of the basilar artery, remained as a "dark corner. " Several pioneers of neurosurgery attempted to explore the interpeduncular fossa, but finally retreated. Not so Charles Drake. His vision must have been stronger than his anxiety, after experiences of initial fatalities, to persevere more decisively in this desperate fight instead of to yield. Such steadfastness requires enormous courage. But what distin guishes courage! Surgical courage is not just a fearless or unscrupulous action.
