AOSpine Masters Series, Vol 7: Spinal Cord Injury and Regeneration (2016) (PDF) by Michael Fehlings and Norbert Weidner

Description

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating, clinically challenging injury, leading to varying degrees of neurological function impairment and paralysis. Underlying biological mechanisms either inhibit or promote new growth in the spinal cord. Researchers have been making important discoveries about how neurons and their axons grow in the central nervous system and why they fail to regenerate after SCI. Although progress has been steady, there remains an urgent need to address issues in acute management such as early decompression and the use of biologics, as well as potential solutions for regeneration.

Written by renowned experts in the ever-evolving field of SCI research and clinical practice, the 7th volume in the AOSpine Masters series is a state-of-the-art compendium on the latest in SCI diagnosis, spine surgery interventions, and long-term management. Each chapter contains pearls from leading spine specialists gleaned from the research laboratory and years of hands-on experience treating SCI patients in the emergency setting and long term.

User’s Reviews

The book is thoroughly planned, with nice illustrations and elegant didactic details, such as the selection of five must-read references and the “pearls and pitfalls” summaries at the end of each chapter. — Acta Neurochirurgica
