    • French
    Cette nouvelle édition de Lecture radiologique aux urgences : l’indispensable est une aide essentielle pour tous ceux qui doivent faire rapidement une interprétation radiologique des lésions traumatiques et de certaines autres pathologies aux urgences. Cet ouvrage pragmatique repose sur l’approche analytique étape par étape qui permet de répondre à la question : « À première vue, ces images me paraissent normales – mais comment dois-je les analyser de manière logique et systématique ? ». Un diagnostic radiologique précis dépend d’abord et avant tout d’une bonne compréhension de l’anatomie normale. Ce guide de lecture de l’imagerie s’appuie sur un texte concis, mettant en exergue des dessins anatomiques novateurs. Chaque chapitre se déroule selon le même modèle : • l’anatomie normale, • l’analyse avec les points à contrôler, • les traumatismes fréquents, • les traumatismes rares mais importants, • les pièges potentiels. Le contenu clair et pédagogique de cette nouvelle édition s’adresse en premier lieu aux radiologues, mais également aux urgentistes, chirurgiens orthopédiques, pédiatres.

  • Les acouphènes

    Diagnostic, prise en charge et thérapeutique
    • 1st Edition
    • Martine Ohresser
    • French
    Encore partiellement compris, les acouphènes ont la réputation d’être difficiles à prendre en charge dans la pratique quotidienne. Pourtant, de grands progrès ont été réalisés ces dernières années en clinique comme en thérapeutique. Ce livre est conçu comme un outil d’aide au diagnostic, à l’examen clinique et à la prise en charge des patients acouphéniques, en lien avec les connaissances récentes sur le sujet. Après des rappels fondamentaux sur l’anatomie et les particularités physiologiques du système auditif et des différentes structures neurologiques impliquées dans l’acouphène, l’ouvrage est très largement consacré à l’évaluation médicale et pluridisciplinaire du patient et du type d’acouphène en cause. Viennent ensuite la prise en charge et les thérapeutiques avec, pour finir, les perspectives ouvertes par la recherche. Il met en lumière les points forts indispensables à connaître à chacune des étapes, la première consultation, le bilan à réaliser, les critères orientant la décision thérapeutique et les différentes options de traitement. L’approche est résolument pluridisciplinaire. Il revient à l’ORL, outre d’assurer le bilan auditif et l’orientation diagnostique, de coordonner cette pluridisciplinarité. L’implication du médecin généraliste est aussi une nécessité. Il se doit de connaître les prises en charge proposées pour pouvoir utilement épauler son patient aux côtés des différents intervenants concernés, auxquels ce livre donne la parole : audioprothésistes, psychothérapeutes, sophrologues, psychiatres, hypnothérapeutes, ostéopathes notamment. Cet ouvrage se veut avant tout pratique et didactique : les exposés sont complétés de nombreuses illustrations, qu’il s’agisse de graphiques ou de cas cliniques.
