    • Spanish
    Obra dedicada al manjeo de las crisis en anestesia que ofrece una perspectiva actualizada de las teorías, los principios y las prácticas de más reciente desarrollo en el campo de la anestesia. Ayuda a reaccionar de inmediato ante potenciales riesgos de toda índole e incorpora elementos de simulación de manejo de las incidencias críticas. Identifica y da respuesta a una amplia gama de situraciones de riesgo vital, recogidas en la sección "Catálogo de acontecimientos críticos en anestesia", en la que se analizan las contingencias que pueden darse durante la cirugía, y se detallan los pasos necesarios para responder a las crisis y resolverlas adecuadamente. Examina las cuestiones más actuales en el entorno de la anestesia, en constante evolución, con un capítulo específico dedicado al análisis-debate (debriefing).
  • The Metallogeny of Lode Gold Deposits

    A Syngenetic Perspective
    • 1st Edition

    • English
    The Metallogeny of Lode Gold Deposits: A Syngenetic Perspective is a synthesis of lode gold vein forming processes, addressing the commonality in similar worldwide deposits. The book’s empirical model incorporates widely known and accepted principles of ore deposition and shows how it applies in the volcanic-sedimentary greenstone belt environment. Several chapters detail outcrop maps and photos of field occurrences and textures. The interpretations flow directly from the authors’ field work, and are coupled with analyses of underlying physical processes. Utilizing detailed geological mapping, field work, and chemical analyses as the basis of a syngenetic formation mode, the text arms readers with the tools necessary to accurately analyze and interpret new data on the subject. This includes information on decoding the significance of asymmetry in vein formation, as well as the role of lamprophyres in gold camps, how Archean geology requires integration into a lode vein formation model, and how to develop an understanding of the worldwide applicability of gold cycles to lode vein formation and exploration and how it can be applied to deposits of all ages.
  • Soft Tissue Pathology: Diagnostic Challenges, An Issue of Surgical Pathology Clinics

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 8-3
    • Leona A. Doyle
    • English
    This issue of Surgical Pathology Clinics is devoted to Soft Tissue Tumors, the first in this series was presented in 2011. This issue addresses the most difficult diagnostic challenges and focuses on differential diagnosis in soft tissue tumors. Each presentation is accompanied by abundant histologic slides to display the diagnostic differences. Additionally, authors selected two to five diagnoses they find can be particularly difficult, with an emphasis on how to approach such lesions on biopsy samples where relevant and the role of ancillary studies. Topics include coverage of diagnostically challenging: Vascular lesions; Retroperitoneal “Fatty” tumors of adults; Smooth muscle neoplasms; Chondro-osseous lesions of soft tissue; Pediatric tumors; Epithelioid tumors; Spindle cell neoplasms of the retroperitoneum; and Peripheral nerve sheath tumors. Also presented are: Non-mesenchymal mimics of benign and malignant soft tissue tumors; Soft tissue tumors with overlapping molecular findings; Recently characterized soft tissue tumors; Benign mimics of sarcoma; Advances in molecular methods in the analysis of soft tissue tumors and therapeutic implications; and Myoepithelial tumors: an update. Leona Doyle and Karen Fritchie lead this issue of experts in soft tissue pathology.
