During recent years, major advances in surgical techniques,
diagnostic methods, anesthesia and adjunctive treatment in the care
of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage have been achieved.
Nevertheless, the overall outcome of patients with SAH cannot be
regarded as satisfactory. The first part of the book concentrates
on the pathogenetic mechanisms underlying vasospasm and edema, the
principal causes of poor outcome. Recent progress in the field of
membrane lipid metabolism has allowed the problem to be approached
from an entirely new perspective. The possible participation of
free radicals, membrane lipids and eicosanoids is thoroughly
discussed. The second part features the problems of practical
management of SAH patients. Timing and indication of surgery of
aneurysms and the surgical techniques are described in detail.
The Leitmotiv of the Second Convention of the Academia Eurasiana
Neurochirurgica was "Cerebrum convalescit" - literally "the brain
recovers." The focus of the meeting was on plasticity of the
central nervous system, one of the most decisive factors in
recovery and readaption after cerebral lesions. Distinguished
experts from the fields of neurosurgery, neurology,
neurophysiology, anatomy, pathology, oncology, and pharmacology
discussed the following topics: - Molecular and cellular basis of
plasticity - Regeneration and growth in the CNS - Self-organization
of neuronal network - Brain oedema - a reparatory process? - Growth
factors and carcinogenesis
