Spine Surgery, Orthopedic Surgery & Neurosurgery NEW PUBLICATIONS EMERGING SPINE SURGERY TECHNOLOGIES: EVIDENCE AND FRAMEWORK FOR EVALUATING NEW TECHNOLOGY Edited by Terry P. Corbin, B.S.B.M.E, Patrick J. Connolly, M.D., Hansen A. Yuan, M.D., Qi-Bin Bao, Ph.D., Scott D. Boden, M.D. 2006. Hardcover, 612 pages, approx. 350 illustrations ISBN 1-57626-138-7 Evidence-based medicine, which requires different and more stringent clinical studies than those required for regulatory approval, is now the dominant decision methodology demanded by payers of health care. This is where the treatments to be used by tomorrow’s spine surgeon will be made or broken. To ensure reimbursement, physicians must have access to scientific evidence that a new product is not only safe and effective but also appropriate for a specific condition. This comprehensive book provides a solid evidence-based foundation for evaluating the exciting new developments in spine surgery. It is essential reading for all spine surgeons. Chapters by distinguished authors preview the promising developments in biologic and tissue engineering as applicable to spine fusion, repair and regeneration of the intervertebral disc, and spinal cord repair and regeneration. Chapters on surgical navigation are also included. Step-by-step descriptions for the range of surgical technique for spinal implants and disc replacements are included. Numerous photographs and radiographs as well as ample boxes and tables add further detail. In addition, tips and tricks, problems and complications, as well as results and benefits are discussed. For devices still in clinical trial, the authors discuss the testing done to date and trial results. A BOOK YOU’LL READ - THEN USE - DAY AFTER DAY • Focus on evidence-based medicine • Comprehensive coverage of biologic and tissue engineering • Written by recognized experts in orthopedic surgery and neurosurgery • Latest information on new techniques and products in spine surgery • Current clinical trial results NONFUSION TECHNIQUES FOR THE SPINE: MOTION PRESERVATION AND BALANCE (Book and 1 DVD) Edited by James H. Maxwell, M.D., Steven L. Griffith, Ph.D., and William C. Welch, M.D., FICS 2006. Hardcover, 380 pages, 350 Illustrations, 1 DVD ISBN 1-57626-179-4 Providing comprehensive coverage of motion preservation devices, Nonfusion Techniques for the Spine: Motion Preservation and Balance, edited by the preeminent leaders, Drs. James H. Maxwell, Steven L. Griffith, and William C. Welch, provides surgeons with the cutting-edge information they need to learn about options for treatment and to keep pace with growing patient demand. This work is truly a collaborative effort; researchers and engineers from industry and academia team with spine surgeons and medical professionals to provide a well-rounded overview of the clinical and technical aspects of motion-preservation technologies and procedures. The book is divided into three parts. Part I explores the features and benefits of motion-sparing versus motion-limiting devices. Part II focuses on the clinical applications for cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spinal implants and lumbar augmentation. Step-by-step surgical instruction is presented for each procedure. Numerous pre- and postoperative images illustrate the results that can be achieved. Part III is devoted to future considerations of total disc arthroplasty. To complement the book, a DVD featuring operative video and animation of key techniques is included. KEY FEATURES • Thorough coverage of motion preservation devices • World-renowned editors and contributors from both industry and academia • Numerous case studies with clinical results • Step-by-step technique • 4-color throughout • DVD with operative video and animation 29 1-800-348-7808 • 314-878-7808 • FAX 314-878-9937 http://www.qmp.com • customerservice@qmp.com
Spine Surgery, Orthopedic Surgery & Neurosurgery NEW PUBLICATIONS AN ANATOMIC APPROACH TO MINIMALLY INVASIVE SPINE SURGERY (Book and 2 DVDs) Edited by Mick J. Perez-Cruet, M.D., M.Sc., Larry T. Khoo, M.D., and Richard G. Fessler, M.D., Ph.D. 2006. Hardcover, 800 pages, 825 illustrations (many in color), 2 DVDs ISBN 1-57626-173-5 What separates the very good clinicians from the truly outstanding ones? More often than you might imagine, the difference lies not in technical mastery or specific knowledge of disease processes, but in a surgeon’s understanding of relevant anatomy. A sound anatomic background helps you improve your ability to recognize potential pitfalls and to effectively handle problems when complications do arise. While there are many atlases and technical references available in the rapidly growing field of spine surgery, most focus exclusively on operative technique alone and make only a passing reference to the anatomic considerations that greatly influence both short- and long-term outcomes. An Anatomic Approach to Minimal Access Spine Surgery fills this gap by offering an anatomically oriented presentation of the latest developments in minimally invasive surgery for the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine. Each chapter in this comprehensive reference balances clinical anatomy with specific surgical applications. Every procedure is described in precise step-by-step fashion and is accompanied by detailed color illustrations and intraoperative images which highlight the key steps for performing these techniques safely and effectively. Numerous pre- and postoperative images demonstrate the possible results that can be achieved. Instrumentation, monitoring, outcome analysis, and complications are also discussed in detail. An Anatomic Approach to Minimal Access Spine Surgery is edited by preeminent experts, Dr. Mick Perez-Cruet, Dr. Larry Khoo, and Dr. Richard G. Fessler, who are joined by group of outstanding contributors. This comprehensive publication is filled with detailed anatomic and clinical information, collected throughout the years of these experts’ experience, to help the spine surgeon skillfully execute minimally invasive procedures for each region of the spine. Comprehensive chapters are included on the range of minimally invasive spine surgery operations. Of particular importance is the chapter on complication avoidance; this invaluable chapter provides the reader with information on potential complications and how to avoid them to help ensure safe procedures, improved patient outcomes, and reduced healthcare costs. In addition, chapters on minimally invasive fusion and instrumentation (including the Pathfinder and the Sextant systems), percutaneous pedicle screw targeting, injection based spine procedures, and artificial disc technology present cutting edge developments in the field. To enhance the learning experience, two DVDs are included with operative video presenting key techniques discussed in the book. For the experienced spine surgeon or for those spine surgeons wishing to expand his or her practice to include minimally invasive techniques, this book is a must! No other source provides so much sound, practical advice or such complete coverage. KEY FEATURES: • Comprehensive coverage of range of minimally invasive operations • Anatomic approaches with clinical correlations • World-renowned editors and contributors • Focus on complication avoidance • Coverage of surgical and nonsurgical techniques • Step-by-step surgical technique for all procedures • Beautifully illustrated in 4-color 30 1-800-348-7808 • 314-878-7808 • FAX 314-878-9937 http://www.qmp.com • customerservice@qmp.com
