Yaşargil Microneurosurgery Study Guide is designed for effective learning and study of the neurosurgical principles contained in seminal microneurosurgery textbooks. From normal microsurgical anatomy to aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations, and CNS tumor microsurgery, this study guide provides a question-and-answer format to knowledge of the background, anatomy, and techniques of microneurosurgery. This work is a practical guide to the application of microneurosurgery to a variety of brain conditions, including intracranial aneurysms, extrinsic and intrinsic tumors, while providing guidance on instrumentation and equipment, neuroanesthesia, complications, and more. This practical book is ideal for neurosurgeons, neurologists, neuroanatomists, and other technical experts with a clinical interest in brain microsurgery.
- Provides a fill-in the blanks format structure of question and answers to test microneurosurgery learning
- Discusses pathology, physiology, imaging and treatment protocols in neurosurgery
- Details acronyms to help provide memory cues
- Allows readers to test their knowledge of neurosurgical anatomy, techniques, equipment, and more
- Ideal for both neurosurgeons, neurosurgical residents, and others working in the field of microneurosurgery
Neurosurgeons, neurosurgery residents, neuroscientists, neuropathologists, neuroscientists, medical students, neuroradiologists, neuroanesthetists, neuroanatomists
