100 Case Reviews in Neurosurgery

Discover the fascinating history of medicine from its primitive beginnings to the lifesaving technologies of today. Award-winning author Dr Carol Cooper takes you on a journey through the 12 objects that have come to define medicine through the ages – from the barbaric and bizarre to the inventive and impressive, this captivating read is peppered with fascinating anecdotes. In this unique history, you will discover how ill health has been with us for as long as humans have existed, as has the drive to treat and understand it. Over the course of centuries, the ways in which doctors have engaged with sickness has changed drastically, and so too have the tools at their disposal.

The History of Medicine in Twelve Objects

The essential multimedia guide on the management of complex nerve injuries

Nerve surgery has fully come into its own as a complex, critical, and unique area in the broad field of surgery. Advancements in the management of complex nerve injuries that have occurred over the last three decades are reflected throughout the pages of Nerve Surgery, Second Edition. Edited by renowned nerve surgeon and professor Susan E. Mackinnon, the new edition features contributions from an impressive group of talented surgeons, clinicians, and scientists who are leaders in the field of nerve surgery.

The book features 22 chapters written by many new authors, with updates incorporated into practice in the last decade. Introductory chapters cover the history of nerve surgery and essential anatomy and physiology. The subsequent three chapters encompass patient evaluation, electrodiagnostic (EDX) examination of nerve injuries, and nerve repair and grafting principles. The core chapters discuss management of a full range of traumatic and idiopathic nerve syndromes, birth-related nerve injury, and peripheral nerve neoplasms. Technical aspects of nerve transfers, most defined by Mackinnon, are discussed in the updated chapters.

The classification of nerve injury has been clarified to recognize a Sunderland zero injury of ischemic block and the implication of immediate recovery of function with surgical decompression. Axonotmetic III as an indication for end to side nerve transfers is explained and the new concept of the critical plateau for functional recovery is introduced and its relationship to axonotmetic III EDX studies and surgical procedures is clarified. Understanding how to interpret EDX studies represents a paradigm shift in patient selection for nerve surgery. The EDX chapter in the second edition represents a unique collaboration between Mackinnon and neurology colleagues, Prof. Muhammad Al-Lozi and Prof. Robert C. Bucelli, over the last two decades on how to read EDX studies.

Key Highlights

- Seventy-eight online videos provide hands-on procedural guidance

- More than 1,100 high-quality illustrations and operative photographs enhance understanding of anatomy

- Basic to advanced techniques, including various nerve transfer procedures, processed allografts and conduits, and tendon transfers

- Completely new chapters focus on historical perspectives, postoperative rehabilitation of nerve transfers, and dissemination and implementation of science in nerve surgery

Like the acclaimed first edition, the updated publication is essential reading for all nerve surgeons, orthopedic, and plastic and reconstructive surgeons, while also providing a solid foundation of knowledge for neurosurgeons, neurologists, otolaryngologists, allied health specialists, and occupational and physical therapists treating patients with nerve injuries.

 

This print book includes a scratch off code to access a complimentary digital copy on MedOne.

Pediatric Neurosurgery: Tricks of the Trade

Brachial plexus injury (BPI) is one of the most functionally devastating injuries, as it causes substantial debilitation and long-term difficulties in daily activities. The burden for the patient and the caregiver may arise not only from neurological disability but also from psychosocial and socioeconomic factors.
This injury is more prevalent among young men aged 15 to 25 and is primarily caused by road accidents, especially those involving motorbikes. Other significant causes include obstetric injuries, severe trauma from falls, direct or blunt blows, penetrating injuries, forced traction, and compression injuries.
If a nerve has been divided by a sharp laceration, it can usually be repaired with a direct suture. If a nerve tract has been damaged, as is often the case when it has been subjected to severe traction injuries, repair will require a nerve graft. 

Brachial plexus nerve grafts are typically required for lacerations to achieve a tension-free repair. While neurolysis, nerve repair, and nerve grafting have been employed to address stretching plexus injuries, nerve transfers utilize an undamaged nerve to provide motor input over a relatively short distance to reinnervate a denervated muscle. This approach has become the preferred and most extensively studied technique for nerve repair today, with numerous pathways aiming to enhance functional outcomes. 
So far, no comprehensive effort has been made to categorize and classify the various nerve transfer techniques and procedures for BPI patients; this is the first book to accomplish that. Neurosurgeons, plastic surgeons, orthopedic surgeons, and hand surgeons must understand and select the most effective methods for treating their BPI patients.
