This text provides insights into current trends and controversial issues
regarding state-of-the-art techniques in neurosurgery, interventional
neuroradiology, and endovascular surgery. The authors confront such questions
as: Are unruptured aneurysms managed most effectively by neurosurgical clipping
or endovascular coiling? Is surgery or endovascular coiling the best treatment
for ruptured cerebral aneurysms of the anterior or posterior cerebral
circulation? In managing arteriovenous malformations and fistulas, should
clinicians use neurointerventional techniques or surgery, or a combination of
both?

Highlights:

• More than 240 excellent illustrations, figures, and
  radiological images reviewing key concepts
  
• Detailed coverage of treatments for ischemic
  diseases, including extracranial and intracranial atherosclerosis
  
• Discussion of the organizational issues of integrating
  subspecialties and training subspecialists

This text also offers you the opportunity to earn valuable CME credits online. Neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists, neurologists, vascular surgeons, and specialists will find the book's balanced coverage of critical current issues in neurosurgery an indispensable aid in making informed decisions.
