Nir Shimony – författare

In this issue of Neurosurgery Clinics, guest editors Drs. George I. Jallo and Nir Shimony bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Intramedullary Spinal Cord Tumors. Top experts address the history of spinal cord tumor surgery, management of adult and pediatric spinal cord tumors, and vascular lesions of the spinal cord, as well as pathological diagnosis of intramedullary spinal cord tumors (gliomas and ependymomas) with new molecular understanding for these tumors, and more.

This illuminating and comprehensive work offers readers a thorough and detailed perspective of brainstem surgery as well as state-of-the-art discussion on the diagnosis and management of related pathologies.  Hailing from around the globe and currently practicing in various countries in Asia, Europe, and North America, the expert authors of this work represent a wide range of disciplines and experiences, providing a comprehensive, interdisciplinary overview of brainstem surgery.  Indeed, brainstem pathologies remain the most challenging to manage surgically due to the high eloquence and the deep and hidden location of the brainstem, turning surgical treatment of brainstem pathologies into one of the most complex and demanding fields in neurosurgery.  This vital book guides readers through this very complex anatomical territory in which any pathology leads to grave consequences.  Taking readers through the depth of the complex architecture of the brainstem in the clinical context, and emphasizing the evidence-based treatment of different brainstem pathologies while also reviewing what the future holds for the management of these pathologies, the book presents a review of state-of-the-art preoperative assessment modalities and surgical. The book covers brainstem-related pathologies from infancy to adulthood, and the text is enriched with diagnostic and surgical images that cover almost all types of brainstem lesions.  The book is written in a way that neurosurgery specialists and fellows will feel comfortable navigating throughout its contents, and the enthusiastic neurosurgery resident will find this book to be a valuable guide.  A major contribution to the clinical literature, Brainstem Tumors: Diagnosis and Management will also serve as a reference for anyone involved in the treatment of patients suffering from brainstem pathologies, including medical team members such as adult and pediatric neurosurgeons, neurologists, neurooncologists, residents and fellows, clinical neuropsychologists, electrophysiologists, neuroradiologists, and medical students who have a passion to learn about the assessment and surgical management of patients with brainstem diseases.

This specialized textbook will be dedicated to the various disease topics of pediatric neurosurgery and management strategies. The text will cover the different aspects of the field of pediatric neurosurgery in a unique way by giving state of the art up-to-date synopsis with references to recent publications. More specifically, the whole book is dedicated to a comprehensive discussion of brainstem tumors and other lesions.  It will be composed of 20 chapters. The various chapters will start from updates regarding the development of the nervous system and the clinical differences in assessing the infant or a child in comparison to the adult patient. The book then will focus on  various pathologies starting with hydrocephalus, pediatric brain and spine tumors, congenital malformation, spasticity, epilepsy, and more. The proposed textbook will be enriched with diagnostic and surgical images, and illustrations that cover all types of pediatric neurosurgery pathologies, with an emphasis on evidence-based data that reflects the controversies and possible solutions. The main structure of each chapter will include a short synopsis of the topic at hand, questions and answers that will inspire the reader for better understanding, learning objectives, and key references for further reading. Written by experts in the field, Pediatric Neurosurgery Board Review serves as a valuable resource for neurosurgery residents and fellows studying for their neurosurgery exams, as well as an educational material for neurosurgery specialists after graduation by discussing pediatric neurosurgery in more convenient way to review and understand key information in this field.
