Spinal surgeons treat spinal trauma patients on a regular basis in their hospital emergency rooms. This well-illustrated, hands-on guide to the many surgical techniques required in these situations provides a solid basis for the management of spinal trauma.
From the reviews:
“This is a comprehensive yet concise overview of spine trauma. … aimed at surgeons in training, beginning spine attendings, or surgeons who do not deal with trauma on a daily basis. … What’s unique about this book is that it manages to be concise but does not leave out pertinent details. The case examples are very useful, and the book takes a unique approach to delivering the information. … This is a good reference and technique guide for those dealing with spine trauma.” (Krzysztof Siemionow, Doody’s Review Service, April, 2011)
