Acute Care Neurosurgery by Case Management

Acute Care Neurosurgery by Case Management offers a comprehensive analysis of the most common clinical scenarios that require urgent consultation for neurosurgical procedures. The book places particular emphasis on the essential elements of the clinical interview and examination, optimal diagnostic evaluation, as well as the indications and goals of surgical interventions. It does not serve as a surgical atlas but rather as a guide to the threshold of surgery. The aim is to establish a systematic, evidence-based action plan for patients in neurological crisis situations. Each chapter begins with a relevant case example and unfolds through uniform sections that outline the approach to treating the respective condition from the initial consultation to the final treatment. The decision-making steps are clearly highlighted to ensure a well-informed and efficient approach.
