MIS of the Hip and the Knee
A Clinical Perspective
Alfred J. Tria , Giles R. Scuderi
editore: Springer Verlag New York Inc.
pagine: 220
This is a new and exciting period in orthopedic surgery. Times are cha- ing,and we are developing techniques to perform joint arthroplasty through smaller and smaller incisions in an effort to reduce the amount of int- operative trauma and expedite the path to recovery. Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) leads to shorter hospital stays with quicker recoveries. The procedures may eventually be performed on an outpatient basis with an earlier return to daily activities and work. We have asked the leading world authorities in this ?eld of orthopaedics to contribute their ideas on these new techniques. Because so much of the technology is new, the authors cannot present signi?cant long-term foll- up. However, with their cooperation, we can present the most current knowledge about the ef?cacy of MIS. Thomas P. Sculco,Mark A. Hartzband, and Richard A. Berger have summarized their early experiences with m- imally invasive surgical total hip arthroplasty in a succinct manner. Paolo Aglietti, Jean-Noel A. Argenson, and David W. Murray have provided - depth impressions of the European experience with unicondylar knee arthroplasty. John A.
Repicci, a pioneer in MIS knee surgery, presents his experience with unicondylar knee arthroplasty. Finally,Thomas M. Coon adds his own experience to give a glimpse into the future of MIS total knee arthroplasty. We are grateful to all of the authors and contributors to this text for their time and consideration. It is our hope that this work will be the foundation for the future of MIS total hip and knee arthroplasty.
Vascular and Interventional Imaging
Jennifer E. Gould , Suresh Vedantham
editore: Mosby
pagine: 302
Quick and thorough review of vascular diagnosis, vascular interventions and nonvascular interventions divides cases into three levels of difficulty for ease of reference. Imaging now moves from strictly diagnosis to encompass aggressive treatment of conditions that once required surgery. Discussion details techniques used for biopsies, draining fluids, inserting catheters, and dilating or stenting narrowed ducts or vessels. The procedures included allow readers to significantly reduce risk, pain, and recovery time in patients requiring no general anesthesia or overnight hospital stay. Over 350 images enhance understanding of the text. The book has cross-references to "Vascular and Interventional Radiology: The Requisites".
Neurocutaneous Disorders
E. Steve Roach , Van S. Miller
editore: Cambridge
pagine: 356
The neurocutaneous disorders comprise a large group of neurological syndromes that feature skin lesions and often eye lesions, central and peripheral nervous system tumors, brain malformations, mental retardation, psychiatric symptoms, or seizures. Neurocutaneous syndromes have been known for centuries, but recent research into their cellular, biochemical and molecular-genetic basis has pointed to an essential need for a genotypic nosology. In this book, a distinguished team of editors and authors provides an authoritative, illustrated, up-to-the-minute review of the current understanding of phenotype-genotype relationships in these disorders, as well as their recognition, investigation and treatment. It will be essential reading for all neurologists as well as dermatologists, geneticists and pediatricians.

The Springer Handbook of Auditory Research presents a series of comp- hensive and synthetic reviews of the fundamental topics in modern au- tory research.The volumes are aimed at all individuals with interests in hearing research, including advanced graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and clinical investigators.The volumes are intended to int- duce new investigators to important aspects of hearing science and to help established investigators to better understand the fundamental theories and data in ?elds of hearing that they may not normally follow closely. Each volume is intended to present a particular topic comprehensively, and each chapter will serve as a synthetic overview and guide to the lit- ature.As such, the chapters present neither exhaustive data reviews nor original research that has not yet appeared in peer-reviewed journals.The volumes focus on topics that have developed a solid data and conceptual foundation rather than on those for which a literature is only beginning to develop. New research areas will be covered on a timely basis in the series as they begin to mature.

Marcello Crivellini
editore: Franco Angeli
pagine: 256
Risorse, modelli organizzativi, dimensioni quantitative e tipologie di cure sembrano sempre più a immagine e somiglianza della sanità piuttosto che della salute dei cittadini. Chi programma sul territorio e chi opera nella gestione della sanità non può ormai ignorare tendenze, vincoli, opportunità e dimensione dei fenomeni che si manifestano con dinamiche simili in tutti i paesi industrializzati e che obbligano i governi alla scelta tra privilegiare l'interesse della sanità o quello della salute. Il volume descrive le tendenze delle principali grandezze sanitarie e di salute e i modelli organizzativi della sanità nei principali paesi industrializzati, dagli Stati Uniti alla Francia, dalla Germania alla Spagna, tenendo conto delle più recenti riforme.
