This book documents the state of the art in pediatric neurosurgery with the intention of providing a comprehensive guide to the management of the full range of pediatric neurosurgical disorders that will aid in the delivery of optimal care. Detailed practical instruction, taking into account recent advances, is provided on the neurosurgical treatment of congenital brain malformations, cerebrovascular diseases, head injuries and spinal trauma, infections, functional disorders, congenital and developmental spinal disorders, and brain and spinal tumors. Pearls and pitfalls are highlighted, and attention drawn to the most useful tips and tricks. Information is also included on relevant related topics, including the principles of neuroimaging, the physiological responses of newborns, infants, and children to neurosurgical trauma, preoperative evaluation, anesthesiology and intensive care, and other forms of therapy. The authors are renowned experts in the field, and the text is supported by a wealth of high-quality images.Handbook of Pediatric Neurosurgerywill be of value for neurosurgeons of all levels of experience, as well as for pediatricians, neuroradiologists, neuropathologists, and neuro-oncologists.

Recenzii

“The authors have done an excellent job of catering to visual learners who may often struggle with dense research texts. … we enthusiastically support the circulation of the Textbook of Pediatric Neurosurgery and encourage surgeons, residents, students, and associated health care providers in neurosurgery to take a second look at what this text has to offer.” (Rebecca A. Reynolds and Robert P. Naftel, Operative Neurosurgery, Vol. 20 (4), April, 2021)
“Textbook of Pediatric Neurosurgery provides in exquisite detail a guide to both the fundamentals and details of pediatric neurosurgery. It will prove an excellent reference for all interested in this rapidly growing and essential field, advanced practitioner and trainee included. I particularly recommend it to senior residents and fellows pursuing a career in pediatric neurosurgery, as this excellent resource will prove itself a frequently referenced throughout their burgeoning careers.” (Nealen G. Laxpati, Operative Neurosurgery, Vol. 20 (4), 2021)

After his initial pediatric neurosurgical training in Chicago, IL, under the guidance of Prof. Anthony J. Raimondi, at the Children’s Memorial Hospital, Prof. Di Rocco dedicated full time to pediatric neurosurgery in Italy, obtaining the first and unique chair of the specialty in the country. He also was fully engaged in the activities of the international pediatric neurosurgical community as President of the ISPN and ESPN, Vice President of the European Association of the Neurosurgical Societies, and Chairman of the Pediatric Committee and the Education Committee of the WFNS. He was awarded with the Medallion of honor of the WFNS in 2019.
With Prof. Maurice Choux, Marseille, France, Prof. Di Rocco is engaged in a vast international program for education in pediatric neurosurgery, which found its more obvious evidence in the organization of Postgraduate Courses held regularly in Europe, South America, and Asia. Prof. Di Rocco published more than 430 articles in peer reviewed international neurosurgical journals. He is author or editor of several books, including Pediatric Neurosurgery, which won the First Prize – Royal Society of Authors Medical Book Awards, published by Churchill Livingstone in 1999 and Neurocutaneous Disorders: Phakomatoses and Hamartoneoplastic Syndromes (2008), European Manual of Neurosurgery (2010), Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery (2015), Craniovertebral Junction Diseases (2016), and Complications Of Csf Shunting In Hydrocephalus: Prevention, Identification, and Management (2016), all published by Springer Verlag.
