Hysterectomy: Procedures, Complications and Alternatives

 Ob/Gynae, Surgery  Comments Off on Hysterectomy: Procedures, Complications and Alternatives
Feb 272018
 

Hysterectomy is one of the most prevalent surgeries world-wide in the female population. Nine out of every ten hysterectomies are performed for non-malignant conditions that are not life-threatening, but have a negative impact on quality of life. Indication policy must be revised as new treatments become available.

Menorrhagia is the primary indication and it is not always a response to an anatomical disease; other common indications are genital prolapse and malignancy. New and improved alternatives are increasingly employed for this indication and are responsible for the fall in the rate of hysterectomies performed in the last decade. This book presents current research in the study of hysterectomies, including laparoscopic hysterectomy; beliefs, attitudes and psychological reactions to hysterectomy; myomectomy in place of hysterectomy; surgical management of congenital uterine abnormalities; and, the hysterectomy crossroads.

Modern Thoraco-Lumbar Implants for Spinal Fusion

 Orthopedics, Surgery  Comments Off on Modern Thoraco-Lumbar Implants for Spinal Fusion
Feb 202018
 

This book presents an updated perspective on spinal implants currently used in thoraco-lumbar spine surgery, leading to a rigid or dynamic spine fusion. The development of new surgical devices and techniques is mostly focused on a spinal fusion for lumbar instability due to trauma, tumours or degenerative or infectious diseases. Pedicle-screw fixation and fusion are currently considered to be the gold standard for most of the above-mentioned pathologies, and modern implants are designed to improve the accuracy of pedicle-screw placement and to allow the use of new surgical techniques and minimally invasive approaches. The content is relevant for surgeons, orthopaedic specialists, neurosurgeons, physiotherapists and osteopaths.

This book provides practical surgical solutions to congenital or acquired penile anomalies and diseases to the practicing urologist who encounters them in their daily practice. It also discusses the best way to approach these patients, and how best to evaluate them. Starting from surgical anatomy, through to examining the various types of penile abnormalities that can occur, Daniel Yachia gives easy-to-follow practical details on the procedures he performs to ensure successful outcomes, not as in a “cook book” but by presenting the principles of these surgical procedures. The reader therefore, can see the book as surgeon-to-surgeon advice on the best methods of dealing with the problems surgically, and also of sensitively managing the patients concerns and worries.
