Synopsis

Spinal disorders are common medical conditions and can seriously affect a patient’s quality of life.

This book is a comprehensive guide to the diagnosis and treatment of spinal disorders, for trainees.

Beginning with an introduction to the anatomy and biomechanics of the spine, the following chapters describe the pathophysiology, diagnosis and both surgical and non surgical treatment options for different disorders, including spinal cord injury, cervical disc disease, adult scoliosis, and spinal tumours.

A complete chapter is dedicated to spinal imaging as a crucial component for diagnosis, helping reduce cost, as well as the need for invasive surgical investigations. The final chapter discusses bone grafting for spinal reconstruction.

Authored by internationally recognised specialists from the USA, this invaluable guide includes nearly 230 images, diagrams and tables.
