This book covers all aspects of the prevention, diagnosis, and
treatment of stroke, offering an integrated perspective that will
be relevant to a range of specialists. Extensive consideration is
given to the different methods of stroke prevention and arterial
revascularization, with up-to-date information on pharmacological
measures and clear presentation of endovascular stent placement
procedures and surgical techniques, including those involving the
carotid artery, vertebral artery, and aortic arch. Complex
procedures, such as simultaneous bilateral carotid
revascularization, are discussed in depth, drawing on a large
series of cases and setting out practical rules. The diagnosis
and treatment of intra- and extracranial aneurysms and the
management of cervical trauma are examined fully. In addition,
the reader is provided with guidance on characterization of the
culprit lesion by means of different imaging modalities and with
advice on the importance of a multidisciplinary team and combined
approaches (endovascular and surgical), identification of risk
factors, anesthesia, neuromonitoring, and hemodynamic monitoring.
The book will be of value not only for cardiac and vascular
surgeons but also for cardiologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons,
anesthesiologists, anatomists, specialists in diagnostic imaging,
and interventional radiologists.
