The diagnosis and treatment of disease is a primary concern for
health professionals and individuals in society. Managing the
treatment and controlling symptoms of diseases is imperative to
patient longevity and quality of life. Effective Techniques for
Managing Trigeminal Neuralgia is a critical scholarly resource that
examines the monitoring, management, and treatment of trigeminal
neuralgia. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as
vascular compression, medical management, and percutaneous
technique, this book is geared towards medical professionals,
researchers, students, and professionals seeking current research
on various treatment options as well as future frontiers in
diagnosis and treatment.
Degenerative disc disease is a significant component of spine
disorders and lower back pain that now afflicts nearly one third of
the adult population. This represents a significant morbidity and
cost burden -- nearly a tenth of all health-care spending -- that
is only increasing in prevalence as the elderly population
continues to grow. While current treatment modalities, ranging from
conservative approaches to surgical interventions, are continually
evolving, new therapies for intervertebral disc disease are also in
development. Increased research on the cellular mechanisms
underlying DDD have led to novel cell-based treatments which aim to
delay rates of degeneration. Intervertebral Disc Degeneration:
Prevalence, Risk Factors and Treatments is a comprehensive text on
all facets of the disease process that covers the pathophysiology,
biomechanics, as well as the location specific pathology and
treatment options for degenerative disc disease. Written by
nationally renowned experts in neurosurgery and orthopedic surgery
of the spine, each chapter is a thorough, cogent discussion of an
essential topic related to intervertebral disc degeneration that
includes many original, easy to understand figures and
illustrations. Also included are overviews of the most cutting-edge
and emerging surgical and biologic management options of disc
disease at all levels of the spine.
