Juvenile Nasopharyngeal Angiofibroma is a rare tumor in adolescent males. This book, the first of its kind devoted to the management of this tumor, is based on Dr N. Janakiram's paradigm shifting management technique for these highly vascular tumors.These tumors have always been a challenge for skull-base surgeons globally. Classical approaches for managing them comprised employing the endoscopic approach for small tumors and invasive approaches for large ones. Dr Janakiram's methodology employs the minimally invasive endoscopic approach for all stages of these tumors, except those which have massive intracranial extensions or have extensions into the parapharyngeal space which cannot be accessed by the endoscopic technique.In detailing the new approach, this volume also offers a new classification for different stages of these tumors and explains surgical techniques for managing them. This meets a long-standing requirement as the classification had remained incomplete because of the lack of adequate number of reported cases globally.This book, authored by some of the pioneers of this field, has the following salient features:Systematic organization of content and wide coverage of topics: from frequently performed procedures to complex, challenging surgeries, surgical approaches and technical maneuvers.Complete explanation of latest endoscopic techniques and optimal utilization of new technologies.Coverage of all stages of juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma, based on a new endoscopic staging system.Step-by-step detailing of different types of surgical procedures, with lucid descriptions and vivid, high-resolution images and illustrations to aid comprehension.

Atlas of Sellar, Suprasellar, and Parasellar Lesions, encompassing both transcranial and transsphenoidal routes, recounts the high points and advances that have made minimally invasive approaches to these complex regions possible, as well as their relative indications and technical nuances. Familiarity with the techniques, the indications, and the surgical anatomy for each procedure will allow the surgeon to tailor the operation according to the approach best suited for each patient.

COVID-associated mucormycosis (CAM) considered to be an "endemic within a pandemic" affected the Indian subcontinent during the second wave of COVID-19 pandemic. This book deals with all the aspects of rhino-orbito-cerebral mucormycosis (ROCM) in its entirety, and it is unparalleled in the respect that it is wholly based on Dr. Narayanan Janakiram's clinical and surgical experience. This book contains in-depth details of surgical aspects of management of ROCM, and the authors stress on central skull base clearance in ROCM to ensure complete recovery of the patients. It describes a step-by-step approach to the management of ROCM, utilizing the unique staging system proposed by Dr. Janakiram. It gives clear-cut surgical approaches for each stage with the help of clinical scenarios and stresses on endoscopic approaches for all cases, except in advanced stages where combined approach is advised.This book is authored by some of the pioneers in this subject, and has the following salient features: Systematic organization of contents and wide coverage of each topic, from the basic surgeries to the most advanced in skull base surgery.Clinical coverage of all stages of ROCM with management as per the Janakiram staging for post- COVID-19 mucormycosis (JSPM) classification.Vivid illustrations and high-definition pictures and videos for in-depth explanation of surgical steps.This print book includes complimentary access to a digital copy on https://medone.thieme.com.Publisher's Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product
