Description
Reoperative neurosurgery has received little attention in the neurosurgical literature, yet it accounts for a substantial proportion of procedures in all practice settings. This book aims to fill that void by presenting the general principles of reoperative neurosurgery, special clinical and diagnostic considerations, technical challenges and legal aspects.
