About this Item

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - There are numerous texts on the management of spinal deformities and a number texts on spinal tumor management, but to this point each has been considered separately, leaving providers and learners challenged since they need to study both fields to adequately treat patients. Considering spinal deformity often occurs with the initial presentation of spinal tumors (especially in pediatrics and syndromic tumor states) and also commonly occurs after surgery or radiation or with tumor progression, a text on this subject is timely. Providers who study deformity miss out on these conditions, and providers who study tumors often do not understand the alignment issues when seeking tumor control.Bringing together the latest techniques and management strategies, this book bridges that gap to provide a comprehensive approach to these two related subjects, divided into chapters covering deformities associated with primary tumors, metastatic tumors and iatrogenic deformities as the result of spine tumor treatment. Specific topics such as neurofibromatosis, osteoid osteoma, kyphosis and scoliosis, and spondylolisthesis are presented, along with chin-on-chest deformity, flat-back deformity and pathological fractures as a result of treatment.Offering a unique perspective combining spinal deformity and spine tumor into acohesive treatment paradigm,Spinal Tumor Associated Deformity is a terrific resource for orthopedic and spine surgeons, neurosurgeons, and all practitioners treating these patients.

About this title

Synopsis

There are numerous texts on the management of spinal deformities and a number texts on spinal tumor management, but to this point each has been considered separately, leaving providers and learners challenged since they need to study both fields to adequately treat patients. Considering spinal deformity often occurs with the initial presentation of spinal tumors (especially in pediatrics and syndromic tumor states) and also commonly occurs after surgery or radiation or with tumor progression, a text on this subject is timely. Providers who study deformity miss out on these conditions, and providers who study tumors often do not understand the alignment issues when seeking tumor control.

Bringing together the latest techniques and management strategies, this book bridges that gap to provide a comprehensive approach to these two related subjects, divided into chapters covering deformities associated with primary tumors, metastatic tumors and iatrogenic deformities as the result of spine tumor treatment. Specific topics such as neurofibromatosis, osteoid osteoma, kyphosis and scoliosis, and spondylolisthesis are presented, along with chin-on-chest deformity, flat-back deformity and pathological fractures as a result of treatment. 

Offering a unique perspective combining spinal deformity and spine tumor into a cohesive treatment paradigm, Spinal Tumor Associated Deformity is a terrific resource for orthopedic and spine surgeons, neurosurgeons, and all practitioners treating these patients.
