9781684201631 (ISBN)
A comprehensive guide to managing spinal tumors from global spine experts
With recent advances in molecular genetics and biotechnology, understanding of spinal tumors is rapidly advancing and significantly altering treatment paradigms for these pathologies. Spine and Spinal Cord Tumors: Classification, Management, and Treatment fills a void in the literature, providing an in-depth, current resource on the diagnosis, classification, and management of spinal column and spinal cord tumors. Edited by renowned spine surgeons Andrew A. Fanous, Michael Y. Wang, and Allan D. Levi, this reader-friendly textbook features contributions from leading international experts across nine countries and six continents.
The text is divided into six parts, with 44 chapters encompassing the latest standard of care, including state-of-the-art radiation therapy and surgical treatment. The introductory part discusses spinal anatomy, as well as general classification, presentation, evaluation, and diagnosis of spinal tumors. Part II on primary tumors of the vertebral column includes chapters on staging, classification, pathology, and cytogenetics of adult and pediatric lesions. Parts III and IV cover spinal cord, meningeal, and peripheral nerve tumors, and metastatic spinal tumors. Part V discusses adjuvant treatment modalities, including chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and angiographic embolization. The last part features 17 chapters dedicated to surgical management, including intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring, technological advances, surgical approaches, and reconstruction techniques.
Key Highlights:
- Contributions from experts in various subspecialties provide diverse perspectives and treatment philosophies
- Invaluable clinical pearls provide insights on complications and pitfall prevention strategies
- A wealth of illustrations and perioperative images enhance understanding of pathologies
