This valuable reference provides coverage on disorders of the thoracic spine including biomechanics, imaging, nonoperative therapies, indications/contraindications for surgery, exposures and techniques, monitoring, instrumentation, and complications. Anterior and posterior approaches are thoroughly covered as well as minimally invasive techniques for spine surgery.
Topics covered range from common disorders to more complex problems, including deformity correction, tumor, degenerative disease, infection, and trauma. Treatment protocols are described for higher-risk subgroups such as pediatric, elderly, obese, osteopenic, critically ill, and spinal cord injury patients.
