Description
<p><i>Meningiomas, Volume 170, Part Two,</i> discusses tumors that arise from the coverings of the brain and spinal cord. In this updated volume of the <i>Handbook of Clinical Neurology, </i>experts in the field - from basic scientists to skilled neurosurgeons, provide up-to-date synopses of each topic as it relates directly to this class of tumor. Surgical and radiation therapy, which remain the mainstays of treatment, are a major focus, but coverage also includes potential molecular avenues for the development of effective medical treatments. This book serves as a comprehensive review of the neurosurgical issues surrounding this extremely common brain tumor.</p> <p>Few procedures in surgery are more immediately formidable than an attack upon a large tumor of this type, hence the greatest challenge of treatment is the need to complete tumor removal without creating new neurologic deficit.</p>
