内容简介

This new multidisciplinary work-the first since 1977 devoted specifically to craniovertebral surgery-includes contributions from the most respected authorities in the field, and offers neurosurgeons practical, step-by-step instruction in more than 30 different craniovertebral procedures. Organized into four main parts, the book begins by examining the embryology, anatomy, imaging, and biomechanics of the craniovertebral junction, then proceeds to the diagnosis, pathology, and clinical management of disorders affecting this region. Sections three and four-the core of the book-provide complete, fully illustrated coverage of all major craniovertebral techniques, including new material on skull base surgery, spine reconstruction, bone grafting, and spinal fusion.
