Part of the Neurosurgery by Example series, this volume on neurotrauma 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 neurotrauma, including hematoma, injury to the sinuses, concussion, orbital trauma, penetrating brain injuries, 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, Neurotrauma is appropriate for neurosurgeons who wish to learn more about a subspecialty, and those preparing for the American Board of Neurological Surgery oral examination.

Reviews for Neurotrauma

Neurosurgery By Example: Neurotrauma has great value in its case-based format and in following the process of each step of patient care, starting with initial evaluation and early treatment and going through complication management. It demonstrates the importance of using literature- and guidelinebased protocols but, perhaps more importantly, knowing when it is appropriate to deviate from these pathways to best serve each patient. -- S. Alan Hoffer, MD, Department of Neurosurgery and Neurology University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center, Neurosurgery
