Book Description
This easy-to-consult guide examines the most advanced techniques in the radiological evaluation of the disc and degenerative disc disease, using conventional, functional, dynamic and advanced imaging. It provides clear information on a range of CT, X-ray, and MRI guided techniques, presents all disc treatments in connection with symptomatic disc herniations, evaluates conservative, chemical (ESI, steroid, Ozone, ethanol gel injections) and physical treatments (coblation, laser, decompressors, endoscopy), and assesses the possibility of repairing and/or regenerating the disc in the context of reversible disc degeneration. Like other books in the Springer series New Procedures in Spinal Interventional Neuroradiology, this practice-oriented volume will fill a significant gap in the literature and meet the need expressed by many specialists (interventional neuroradiologists and radiologists, neurosurgeons, and orthopedists) for a topical and handy guide that specifically illustrates the currently available materials and methods.

Book Description
Part of the Neurosurgery by Example series, this volume on spinal neurosurgery presents exemplary cases in which renowned authors guide readers through the assessment and planning, decision making, surgical procedure, after care, and complication management of common and uncommon disorders. The cases explore the spectrum of clinical diversity and complexity within spinal neurosurgery, including occipital cervical dislocation, cervical myelopathy, thoracic cord compression, lumbar stenosis, and more. Each chapter also contains 'pivot points' that illuminate changes required to manage patients in alternate or atypical situations, and pearls for accurate diagnosis, successful treatment, and effective complication management. Containing a focused review of medical evidence and expected outcomes, Spinal Neurosurgery is appropriate for neurosurgeons who wish to learn more about a subspecialty, and those preparing for the American Board of Neurological Surgery oral examination. Advance Praise for Spinal Neurosurgery "I congratulate Drs. Harrop and Maulucci for this well done book that utilizes a unique and very effective format to cover the gamut of spine surgery and spine care topics. The book is well organized, lavishly illustrated with numerous figures and images, and includes oral board review pearls that are of particular value for those studying for their neurosurgery board examinations." -- Edward Benzel, MD, Emeritus Chair of Neurosurgery, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH "Through this extensive collection of various spine related clinical scenarios, the reader is able to learn very pertinent management principles and pearls. This book is particularly useful for those who are preparing for the oral boards, but also serves as excellent reading material for neurosurgeons and orthopedic spine surgeons at any stage in their career." -- Charles Sansur, MD, Associate Professor of Neurosurgery, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD "Drs. Harrop and Maulucci have assembled an excellent compendium of cases/pathologies. The "Case-based" approach of this text lends itself to an easy readability as well as a compartmentalization of the reading for busy practitioners. This book is extremely useful to practitioners at all stages in their career, as it covers both basic and controversial information for each topic, and may be particularly useful for those surgeons reviewing for their oral board examination." -- Michael Y. Wang, MD, FACS, Professor of Neurological Surgery and Rehab, Medicine Spine Fellowship Director, Chief of Neurosurgery, University of Miami Hospital and Miller School of Medicine, Miami, FL

Book Description
Therefore, this document is an updated review of the evidence since March 2004 for the effectiveness and safety of artificial intervertebral disc replacement for lumbar or cervical degenerative disc disease Clinical Need Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is the term used to describe the deterioration of one or more intervertebral discs of the spine. [...] The goals of spinal fusion are to relieve any existing pressure on the spinal nerves (decompression) and to restore the alignment and stability of the spine. [...] Potential adverse events, reported in the FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data (35) of the Charite artificial disc which might be expected to occur after the implantation of the disc, but were not observed in the FDA IDE clinical trial of the disc, include:. [...] Prodisc II in the The device is intended for use literature) when surgical intervention for the relief of the pain of degenerative disc disease in indicated. [...] As a condition of post market approval, the sponsor is required to monitor those people who participated in the study for 5 years after treatment to assess the long-term safety and effectiveness of the artificial disc including correlating range of motion data with disability and pain measures, and assessing the rate of ASD.

Book Description
If you've been told you need fusion, READ THIS BOOK FIRST! The decision to undergo spinal surgery is a critical one; few decisions in life are more crucial to your future! If you or a loved one are considering spinal fusion or any other spine surgery, you owe it to yourself to understand all your options. The field of spinal surgery is changing rapidly. The "state of the art" has moved far beyond fusion and discectomy, and a whole new world of options now allow patients to recover quickly, regain lost mobility, and return to work and recreational activities without restriction. In this book, you will learn: The predictable, long-term complications that can follow nearly every fusion. Why the surgical techniques of the 60's and 70's continue to have profound and negative impact on the patients of today. How artificial disc replacement and hybrid fusion are allowing patients to avoid the long-term complications of fusion and enjoy a life of complete mobility and freedom instead of stiffness and pain. Join international spine experts Karsten Ritter-Lang, M.D., and Jan Spiller, M.D., as they help you decide "To Fuse or Not to Fuse."

Book Description
This review is intended to summarize the evidence of safety and effectiveness of artificial disc devices for cervical and lumbar spinal surgery, with particular attention to those devices licensed for use in Canada. [...] Proponents of fixation cite the sharing of loads that is possible by internally fixing the segments on either side of the degenerated disc. [...] Data from the United States indicate a rapid increase in the number of spinal fusion procedures, most commonly for the indication of symptomatic degenerative disc disease. [...] Thus, the published English language reports likely represent a reasonable estimate of the upper bound of the rates of such events, since they are drawn from the early experience with the device. [...] To assess artificial disc devices, the relevant question is one of demonstrating, at a minimum, the equivalence of outcomes among patients implanted with the device in question to outcomes among patients undergoing spinal fusion surgery.
