Abstract

Since the highly praised first edition of Surgical Disorders of the Peripheral Nerves was published in 1998, greater understanding of the the molecular and cellular events which underlie the response of nerves to injury, regeneration and neuropathic pain has been achieved. This second edition has been fully updated in line with new clinical knowledge, and also incorporates the extensive study of thousands of surgical case studies spanning repairs of the supraclavicular plexus in the adult, the birth lesion of the brachial plexus,compound nerve injury and iatrogenous injury. Beginning with the fundamentals of the anatomy and function of the peripheral nervous system, and working its way through various types of injury, operative methods, the regeneration and recovery of nerves, surgical reconstruction, pain, and rehabilitation, this eloquently written work provides the reader with the solid understanding required to successfully perform surgery on the peripheral nervous system. Dr Shelagh Smith, joined by Dr Ravi Knight, has rewritten the chapter Electrodiagnosis.  Professor Tara Renton has written a new chapter on injuries to the trigeminal nerve in maxilla-facial and dental work.  The drawings, by Mr Philip Wilson, are new.  Most of the 700 illustrations are also new. This thorough and authoritative look at the surgical treatment of the peripheral nerves is fully illustrated throughout with exquisite line diagrams and clear, instructive photographs.

Abstract

Complex abdominal wall hernias and complex abdominal wall defects, including stomas or the complications associated with any of the above, are common and challenging for surgeons. The lack of high quality evidence leaves surgeons without clear guidance regarding the selection of technique or material to be used when treating these serious problem. Surgery of Complex Abdominal Wall Defects has been written to provide this guidance. It covers the surgical anatomy of the abdominal wall, pathology of abdominal wall defects, such as hernias, enterocutaneous or entero-atmospheric fistulae, indications for, and surgical techniques used to, reconstruct the abdominal wall. In addition, through a number of illustrations, the placement of mesh in the abdominal wall reconstruction, as well as manipulations of patient’s tissue including lateral compartment release techniques and other tissue transfer techniques are described in detail. The text also covers reconstruction of complex contaminated abdominal wall defects in patients with complex enteric fistulae; ostomies, defects created after the excision of previously placed infected prosthetic mesh, and defects associated with acute tissue loss after severe trauma or necrosis of abdominal wall such as necrotizing soft tissue infections. Complex abdominal wall defects in pediatric population and long-term outcomes and durability of these repairs are also addressed. Surgery of Complex Abdominal Wall Defects is written by experts in their respective areas from around the world. It will serve as a guide for current practice for surgeons, including general, trauma, acute care, plastic and reconstructive surgeons.

Abstract

Questo libro si propone di impartire i consigli utili sul modo migliore per accompagnare il paziente traumatizzato grave in sala operatoria, organizzare il lavoro tuo e dell’équipe, sudare sette camicie per risolvere una situazione difficile, ma alla fine chiudere l’intervento con il miglior risultato possibile. In poche parole, una guida pratica sulla chirurgia del trauma destinata non solo agli specializzandi e ai tirocinanti, ma anche ai chirurghi generali interessati al trattamento dei pazienti traumatizzati e ai chirurghi che operano in condizioni difficili – ad esempio presso gli ospedali militari, i distretti rurali o nell’ambito di missioni umanitarie. Sull’atlante chirurgico impari a utilizzare le mani, ma certo non a ragionare, prevenire le mosse e improvvisare, mentre grazie ai nostri consigli pratici apprenderai che quando operi un paziente traumatizzato con emorragia massiva devi usare la testa, oltre che le mani. La prima parte illustra alcuni dei principi generali della chirurgia del trauma, soffermandosi non tanto su come si dovrebbe suturare, quanto piuttosto sulla necessità di sviluppare la capacità di pensare e programmare quando si sta davanti al tavolo operatorio. Purtroppo soltanto di rado, per non dire mai, queste capacità si apprendono frequentando le scuole di specializzazione. La seconda parte è dedicata alla chirurgia del trauma vista come uno sport da contatto: insegna come si trattano specifiche lesioni a carico dell’addome, del torace, del collo e dei vasi periferici, mettendo in particolare evidenza come le cose potrebbero non andare per il verso giusto, un aspetto quasi sempre tralasciato dai testi tradizionali. L’esperienza, invece, ci ha insegnato che imparare dove sono le insidie è essenziale se si vuole imparare ad operare. La lezione più importante che ci auguriamo tu possa trarre da questa guida è di scegliere sempre la soluzione più semplice, perché nella chirurgia del trauma è l’unica che non riserva mai sorprese e dà risultati.

Abstract

This manual provides a practical approach to operative trauma management. Written entirely by physicians who care for critically injured patients every day, the manual features a practical hands on approach to operative trauma care that represents the principles used by the faculty at the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore Maryland. The book contains innumerable practical tips and surgical pearls. It is presented in a manual format so that it fits easily into a white coat pocket, making it a portable and readily accessible reference.  The Shock Trauma Manual of Operative Techniques is a valuable resource for practicing surgeons in the community who cover the Emergency Department and thus, may be called upon to provide operative therapy for trauma, residents, particularly those in whom operative trauma is not a part of their training, and fellows who are training in surgical critical care and trauma.

Abstract

This concise, well-illustrated monograph explains the true pathogenesis, hitherto unsolved, of five key pain syndromes of the arm and describes diagnosis, indications for surgery, surgical techniques, and results. The syndromes in question are tennis elbow, golf elbow, proximal radial nerve compression syndrome, so-called coracoiditis, and Sudeck’s dystrophy. In each case, the neurogenic pathogenesis is identified and deficiencies of other interpretations, for example that these conditions are the result of degenerative processes, are discussed. Appropriate surgical techniques in resistant cases are described in the context of pathogenesis, and treatment outcomes are documented. The fact that these outcomes are excellent in the large majority of cases may be taken as support for the author’s interpretation of pathogenesis. This book will be informative and instructive for all hand, orthopedic, trauma, plastic, general, and neurosurgeons as well as neurologists and hand therapists.
