Infos

Written and edited by leading international authorities in the field, this book provides an in-depth review of the knowledge of the lesions of the scalp and cranial vault, with emphasis on their accurate diagnosis and the medical and often multidisciplined surgical approach to treating these disease processes.  It includes chapters, organized into six main groups: first, general characteristics of lesions of the scalp and calvarium, including definitions, classifications, history, anatomy and histology, regeneration, clinical and imaging features; secondly, congenital and anatomic variants of the scalp and calvarium, including craniosynostosis and craniopagus conjoined twins; thirdly, benign disorders of the scalp and calvarium, including benign lesions with and without atrophy and neoplasms, scarring and pressure sores, and metabolic disorders; fourthly, traumatic, vascular and infectious lesions of the scalp and calvarium, including iatrogenic lesions, infectious or inflammatory, and vascular lesions and malformations; fifthly, malignant neoplasms and secondary malignancies of the scalp and calvarium, including hematologic and intracranial neoplasms; and sixthly, treatment and outcome for lesions of the scalp and calvarium, including nonsurgical treatment, principles of surgery, postoperative complications, prognosis as well as the medicolegal aspects related to these lesions.

The uniqueness of this compilation lies in the fact that all aspects of these disease entities are compiled into one singular definitive work. All these issues are adequately addressed with clinical illustrations and examples.

This comprehensive reference book is an ideal source for neuroscientists at all levels, from graduate students to researchers in specific disciplines studying this region including neurosurgeons, neurologists, pediatricians, plastic and reconstructive surgeons, neuroradiologists, neuropathologists, dermatologists, and neuroscientists in developmental neuroscience who seek both basic and more advanced information regarding the lesions of the scalp and cranial vault.
