Spinal disorders are among the most common medical conditions
with significant impact on health related quality of life, use of
health care resources and socio-economic costs. Spinal surgery is
still one of the fastest growing areas in clinical medicine. The
increasing age of the population will require an increased need for
the treatment of degenerative spinal disorders particularly spinal
stenosis. Basic knowledge on the state of the art in diagnosis and
treatment of spinal disorders is required not only for spine
specialists but also for general orthopedic surgeons,
rheumatologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, chiropractors,
physiotherapists, basic scientists and health care executives to
choose and/or evaluate appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic
approaches. "Spinal Disorders" is an easily readable teaching tool
focusing on fundamentals and basic principles. It provides a
homogeneous syllabus with a consistent didactic strategy teaching
fundamentals and general principles. The chosen didactic concept
highlights and repeats core messages throughout the chapters. This
modern, up-to-date and easy to read textbook on spinal disorders
with its appealing layout will inspire and stimulate the reader for
the study of spinal disorders.
