The quintessential neurosurgical handbook for day-to-day practice!

Now in an updated ninth edition, Handbook of Neurosurgery by Mark Greenberg is synonymous with the most classic neurosurgical handbook published to-date. It has enjoyed legendary status as the go-to manual for legions of neurosurgeons for more than a quarter century. The comprehensive and conveniently compact book brings together a wide range of clinical practice guidelines from disparate sources into an amazing one-stop resource.

Renowned for its depth and breadth, the updated text with nearly 1,800 pages encompasses the entire spectrum of neurosurgery including anatomy, physiology, differential diagnosis, and current principles of nonsurgical and surgical management. The text covers a huge scope of inherited, developmental, and acquired neurological disorders impacting pediatric to geriatric patients. The easy-to-navigate print and electronic formats provide an intuitive foundation for studying the field of neurosurgery.

Key Features:

Boxed summaries, key concepts, tables, practice guidelines, signs/symptoms, and "booking the case" highlight and clarify salient points
Thousands of well-organized cross references, index entries, and literature citations provide additional study sources
Significant revisions to the tumor section reflect a wealth of up-to-date information including treatments, guidelines, sources, and more
The addition of new figures enhances understanding of diseases

As with prior editions, this must-have daily reference book does a magnificent job making essential neurosurgical information, current trends, breakthrough research, and reviews readily accessible to all neurosurgeons and allied health practitioners.

Instead of creating a book in an effort to help take care of patients, this book arose as a result of taking care of patients. It began as a collection of notes that I kept as my needs emerged while practicing neurosurgery. I added to it during my residency as we presented weekly grand rounds on patients that we were treating in the OR, the wards, and the ICU. Later, in my practice, when I encountered something that I had to look up, I included the results of that research in the book for future reference. The book grew organically, instead of arising from a preplanned blueprint. I feel that this has probably been part of the book's success, as well as a source of some of the unevenness of coverage, for which I gradually make amends. While it may not have occurred to me that this was likely a different genesis than most books, I have always said that my patients appear on all the pages of this book. And it is to them that I am eternally grateful.  | 24.07.19 - 07:11  11  Acknowledgments I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the fantastic folks at Thieme Medical Publishers. Their support and willingness to take my opinions seriously has made it a pleasure to bring out this new edition. In particular, I would like to recognize my efficient and thorough (words that do not often coexist when describing an individual) senior editor, Naamah Schwartz. Many thanks, again, to my executive editor, Timothy Hiscock, and to Thieme's amazing wizard of XML, Dr. Michael Wachinger, Director of Content Management. On the Neurosurgical side, I thank those who put up with me during my training (with special fondness for my chairman, Dr. John M. Tew, Jr.), and those who I am now happy to count among my friends and colleagues, especially my chairman and most trusted source for advice, Dr. Harry van Loveren.  www.ebook2book.ir  | 24.07.19 - 07:11  12  Abbreviations and Symbols Abbreviations used only locally are defined in that section using boldface type.

The Handbook of Neurosurgery uses the following seven box types:  Drug info Drug description & dosage.  Key concepts Foundational knowledge in brief.  Practice guideline Evidence-based guidelines. See below (in this section) for definitions. For a listing of evidence-based guidelines contained in this book, see the index under "Practice guideline."  Booking the case These sections appear under certain specific operations to help when scheduling that surgery. Default information appears below (in this section); for example, a specific type of anesthesia will only be mentioned if something other than general anesthesia is typically used. A list of operations addressed by this means can be found in the index under "Booking the case."  Σ Summarizing or synthesizing information from the associated text.  Side information E.g., Greenberg IMHO.  Signs / symptoms A description of signs and symptoms. ▶ Cross references. Cross references: the terms "see below" and "see above" are normally used when the referenced item is on the same page, or at most on the following (or preceding) page. When further excursions are needed, the page number will usually be included. ▶ Default values. These details are not repeated in each section or "Booking the case" box. 1. position: (depends on the operation) 2. pre-op: a) NPO after midnight the night before except meds with sips of water b) antithrombotics: discontinue Coumadin® ≥ 3 days prior to surgery, Plavix® 5–7 d pre-op, aspirin 7–10 d pre-op, other NSAIDs 5 d pre-op  www.ebook2book.ir  | 24.07.19 - 07:11  Conventions  3. 4. 5. 6.  cardiology/medical clearance as needed anesthesia: default = general anesthesia, unless otherwise specified equipment: special devices such as ultrasonic aspirator, image guidance… instrumentation: standard surgical instrument trays for a specific operation are assumed. Special instrumentation resident in the hospital will be listed 7. implants: this usually requires scheduling with a vendor (manufacturers representative/distributor) to provide 8. neuromonitoring will be listed if typically used 9. post-op: default care is on the ward (ICU is typically needed after craniotomy) 10. blood availability: specified if recommended 11. consent (these items use lay terms for the patient—not all-inclusive): ★ Disclaimers: informed consent for surgery requires disclosure of risks and benefits that would substantively affect a normal person's decision to have the operation. It cannot and should not attempt to include every possibility. The items listed in this section are included as memory joggers for some items for various procedures, but are not meant to be all inclusive. The omission of information from this memory aid is not to be construed as implying that the omitted item is not important or should not be mentioned. a) procedure: the typical operation and some possible common contingencies b) alternatives: non-surgical (AKA "conservative") treatment is almost always an option c) complications: ● risks of general anesthesia include: heart attack, stroke, pneumonia ● infection: a risk with any invasive procedure ● usual craniotomy complications include: bleeding intra-op and postop, seizure, stroke, coma, death, hydrocephalus, meningitis, and neurologic deficit related to the area of surgery including (for applicable locations): paralysis, language or sensory disturbances, coordination impairment… ● usual spine surgery complications include: injury to nerve or spinal cord with possible numbness, weakness or paralysis, failure of the operation to achieve the desired result, dural opening which may cause a CSF leak, which occasionally needs surgical repair. Hardware complications (when used) include: breakage, pull-out, malposition. Although a rare complication, it is serious enough that it bears mentioning in cases positioned prone with possible significant blood loss (> 2 L): blindness (due to PION (p. 1097) ) ▶ Evidence-Based Medicine: Definitions. These definitions are referred to in the "Practice guideline" boxes. Strength of recommendation  Description  Level I, II, IIIa  Level A, B, C, Db  Level I High degree of clinical certainty  Level A  Based on consistent Class I evidence (well-designed, prospective randomized controlled studies)  Level B  Single Class I study or consistent Class II evidence or strong Class II evidence especially when circumstances preclude randomized clinical trials  Level II Moderate degree of clinical certainty  Level C  Usually derived from Class II evidence (one or more well-designed comparative clinical studies or less well-designed randomized studies) or a preponderance of Class III evidence  Level III Unclear clinical certainty  Level D  Generally based on Class III evidence (case series, historical controls, case reports and expert opinion).
