Description
Written by specialists in the field, this book offers neurosurgeons instruction in a full range of procedures based on the keyhole concept. It uses 25 operative cases - illustrated in detail - to show how keyhole techniques can be applied in a wide variety of clinical situations. Each chapter provides an easy-to-follow guide to a common keyhole procedure, beginning with the history and diagnosis of an actual case, and proceeding to surgical technique, potential complications and post-operative treatment. In each instance, the book discusses the strengths and weaknesses of different surgical strategies, and leads physicians to the safest, most effective approach.
