The possibilities of surgical treatment of spinal disorders have
expanded enormously in recent years. Movement conservation,
reduction of access routes, and the use of microscope and endoscope
have reduced risks and significantly improved the chances of
success. However, only by knowing and mastering the various
conservative and minimally invasive surgical techniques can one
work on individual treatment for the patient. This book reviews
important literature about spinal disorders, describes surgical
anatomy of the spine, etiology, pathology, clinical signs, imagine
methods of the spinal diseases, and specific techniques of the
spinal procedures. The chapter about cervical and lumbar
degenerative disc disease will bring new knowledge in the possible
therapy, including endoscopic and minimally invasive surgical
procedures. The chapter about infections of the spine gives new

treatment in spine tumors will be written in a separate chapter.
This chapter provides quite an extensive coverage of tumors related
to the spine, and information on their management and treatment,
including operative techniques and approaches with spine
stabilization. Spinal trauma chapter brings together information on
state-of-the-art clinical imaging, including multidetector CT and
high-field MRI techniques and the pathophysiology, neurologic
evaluation, medical management, surgical treatment, and
postoperative assessment of spine trauma and spinal cord injury.
Techniques for spinal procedures include the most common types of
instrumented procedures such as anterior cervical discectomy and
