Summary
This specialized textbook is dedicated to the various disease topics of pediatric neurosurgery and management strategies. The text covers the different aspects of the field of pediatric neurosurgery in a unique way by giving state of the art up-to-date synopsis with references to recent publications. More specifically, the whole book is dedicated to a comprehensive discussion of brainstem tumors and other lesions. The various chapters start from updates regarding the development of the nervous system and the clinical differences in assessing the infant or a child in comparison to the adult patient. The book then focuses on various pathologies starting with hydrocephalus, pediatric brain and spine tumors, congenital malformation, spasticity, epilepsy, and more. This textbook is enriched with diagnostic and surgical images, and illustrations that cover all types of pediatric neurosurgery pathologies, with an emphasis on evidence-based data that reflects the controversies and possible solutions. The main structure of each chapter includes a short synopsis of the topic at hand, questions and answers that will inspire the reader for better understanding, learning objectives, and key references for further reading. Written by experts in the field, Pediatric Neurosurgery Board Review serves as a valuable resource for neurosurgery residents and fellows studying for their neurosurgery exams, as well as an educational material for neurosurgery specialists after graduation by discussing pediatric neurosurgery in more convenient way to review and understand key information in this field.
