In this issue of Neurologic Clinics, guest editors Drs. Russell R.
Lonser and Daniel K. Resnick bring their considerable expertise to
the topic of Neurosurgery for Neurologists. Top experts in the
field cover key topics such as indications and advances in surgical
epilepsy, critical care management of traumatic brain injury,
neurosurgical mimics, surgical neuro-oncology, and more. Contains
16 relevant, practice-oriented topics including degenerative spine
disorders and multiple sclerosis; spinal fusion update;
intraoperative monitoring for spinal surgery; peripheral nerve
injury and compression; diagnosis and treatment of Chiari
malformation; and more. Provides in-depth clinical reviews on
neurosurgery for neurologists, offering actionable insights for
clinical practice. Presents the latest information on this timely,
focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the
field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and
practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based
reviews.
Scientific Advances in Reconstructive Urology and Tissue
Engineering is a comprehensive overview of reconstructive urology
that spans male and female, pediatric, neuro-urology and trauma.
Traditionally, this field has been focused solely on surgical
principles with little attention to basic and translational
research. However, recent advances in acellular matrices,
scaffolds, stem cells and tissue engineering have changed this
focus. This publication is the perfect bridge and definitive tome
of the advances that will move the translational and basic science
of reconstructive urology forward and allow readers to implement
the findings in clinical practice. Through the use of both current
case studies and future implications, the content bridges the gap
from bench to bedside making it the perfect reference for
translational benign urology researchers who wish to move the field
of reconstructive surgery forward.
In this issue of Surgical Oncology Clinics, guest editors Drs.
Chandrajit P. Raut and Alessandro Gronchi bring their considerable
expertise to the topic of Sarcoma. Top experts in the field provide
articles on management of common types of sarcoma, as well as drug
trials, WHO updates, and clinical trials. Contains 15 relevant,
practice-oriented topics including relevant trials update in
sarcomas and GIST: what surgeons should know; management of
retroperitoneal/mesenteric liposarcoma; management of solitary
fibrous tumors; management of skin sarcomas (AS, LMS, DFSP, AFX);
management of leiomyosarcoma; and more. Provides in-depth clinical
reviews on sarcoma, offering actionable insights for clinical
practice. Presents the latest information on this timely, focused
topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field.
Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice
guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews.
Complications in Neuroanesthesia focuses on complications that may
arise related to neuroanesthesia practice and discusses its various
causes. Each complication is written as a separate chapter, and the
pathophysiology and mechanisms of each complication, as well as
measures for diagnosis, treatment and prevention are discussed.
Towards the end of the book, several case scenarios are provided to
the readers that challenge readers to diagnose the possible
complication for each case. Chapters include brain and spinal cord
problems, cardiovascular and hematological problems, and nerve and
muscle problems. Written in a standard format, Complications in
Neuroanesthesia provides quick and easy access to understanding
problems in neuroanesthesia. It provides insight into all possible
complications occurring during perioperative management of
neurosurgical and neurologic patients. It is useful for trainees,
clinicians, and researchers in the fields of neurosurgery,
neurocritical care, and neurology by providing an understanding of
preventable mishaps that may occur in neurosurgical or neurologic
patients.

In this issue of Clinics in Plastic Surgery, guest editor Dr. James
E. Zins brings his considerable expertise to the topic of Brow
Lift. Top experts in the field cover key topics such as gliding
brow lift, brow/eyelid aesthetics, non-invasive correction of the
aging forehead, direct brow lift, and more. Contains a variety of
relevant, practice-oriented topics including brow anatomy and
aesthetic of the aging brow; the hairline brow lift; the endoscopic
brow lift; subcutaneous lateral temporal lift; and more. Provides
in-depth clinical reviews on brow lift, offering actionable
insights for clinical practice. Presents the latest information on
this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced
editors in the field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest
research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant,
topic-based reviews.
Handbook of Endourology contains five focused, review-oriented
volumes that are ideal for students and clinicians looking for a
comprehensive review rather than a whole course. Each volume is
easily accessible through eBook format. Topics covered review both
the endourological diagnosis and treatment of prostate, urethral,
urinary bladder, upper urinary tract, and renal pathology. All
chapters describe the most recent techniques, review the latest
results, and analyze the most modern technologies. In the past ten
years, the field of endourology has expanded beyond the urinary
tract to include all urologic minimally invasive surgical
procedures. Recent advancements in robotic and laparoscopic bladder
surgery make this one of the fastest moving fields in medicine. As
current textbooks are too time-consuming for busy urologists or
trainees who also need to learn other areas of urology, this
collection provides quick references and over 4000 images that are
appropriate for fellows as well as those teaching in the field.
Personalized Immunosuppression in Transplantation: Role of
Biomarker Monitoring and Therapeutic Drug Monitoring provides
coverage of the various approaches to monitoring immunosuppressants
in transplant patients, including the most recently developed
biomarker monitoring methods, pharmacogenomics approaches, and
traditional therapeutic drug monitoring. The book is written for
pathologists, toxicologists, and transplant surgeons who are
involved in the management of transplant patients, offering them
in-depth coverage of the management of immunosuppressant therapy in
transplant patients with the goal of maximum benefit from drug
therapy and minimal risk of drug toxicity. This book also provides
practical guidelines for managing immunosuppressant therapy,
including the therapeutic ranges of various immunosuppressants, the
pitfalls of methodologies used for determination of these
immunosuppressants in whole blood or plasma, appropriate
pharmacogenomics testing for organ transplant recipients, and when
biomarker monitoring could be helpful.
