This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pyogenic Infective Diseases of the Brain and Spinal Cord: Meningitis, Abscess of Brain, Infective Sinus Thrombosis The author had hoped to add a chapter on the literature of the subject, for which material has been collected, but meanwhile its publication must be deferred. The cases reported in this volume as it stands, and the conclusions drawn therefrom, have been principally founded on personal experience. The points advanced by the author in his address on The Surgery of the Brain and Spinal Cord, ' in 1 888, as diagnosticating large abscess in the temporo-sphenoidal lobe, have been fully borne out in several subsequent cases. The thanks of the author are due to Dr. Barr for numer ous pyogenic infective lesions sent by him, and for the loan of literary and pathological material; to Drs. Forrest and Erskine for several valuable specimens; to Dr. G. Ritchie Thomson for the bacteriological investigations undertaken at the author's request, and for his careful scrutiny of the proofs.

Download or read book Bacterial Infections of the Central Nervous System written by Karen L. Roos and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2010-03-03 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bacterial Infections of the Central Nervous System aims to provide information useful to physicians taking care of patients with bacterial infections in the central nervous system (CNS), which can lead to morbidity and mortality. The increased number of patients suffering from this infection has led to the development of vaccines and antibiotics. Comprised of four chapters, the book explains the general approach to patients with bacterial CNS infection. It also discusses various CNS infection concepts and terms. These include the characteristic neuroimaging appearance of specific bacterial infections, the limitations of neuroimaging, the cerebrospinal fluid analysis, the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of bacterial CNS infections, the developments of specific adjunctive strategies, and the principles of antimicrobial therapy. It also includes discussions on various diseases that target the CNS, such as meningitis, focal CNS infections, neurological complications of endocarditis, suppurative venous sinus thrombosis, infections in the neurosurgical patient, and CNS diseases caused by selected infectious agents and toxins. This book will serve as a guide for clinical physicians who have patients suffering from bacterial CNS infection.
