Concise Neurology presents neurology content in a logical sequence within each of ten chapters. Virtually every topic of interest to clinicians is covered in one or two pages to facilitate efficient review of the core concepts in diagnosis and treatment for each syndrome or disease. The author has maintained a thematic unity across related pages, which allows for random reading to be almost as fruitful as sequential reading. For example, a reader who opens the "anticoagulation" page will find a capsulized review of the heparin, warfarin, and thrombolysis stroke trials and the evidence supporting the current therapeutic guidelines. Flipping through neighboring pages will rapidly refresh the position of the clinically relevant thrombophilias in relation to the coagulation pathway, indications for lifelong anticoagulation, causes of hyperhomocysteinemia, and the bare bones of the most important etiologies of strokes in the young. The book presents higher level content than the student "In a Page" text, covers each topic in more depth, and addresses issues related to pathophysiology and neuropathology of diseases. Concise Neurology will be a welcome resource for busy practitioners, residents, fellows, medical students, and allied health care professionals in the neurosciences who require a rapid, readable overview of a complex subject.

La cuarta edición de este manual, completamente revisada y actualizada, es una alternativa concisa a los tratados de neurología. El texto se presenta en apartados numerados y organizados jerárquicamente, lo que permite al lector obtener la información precisa con rapidez y seguridad. Los 58 capítulos cubren una amplia gama de síntomas y trastornos neurológicos habituales en la práctica diaria. La sección I consta de 35 capítulos centrados en la información necesaria para realizar el diagnóstico de los trastornos neurológicos. La sección II se compone de 23 capítulos sobre el tratamiento de dichos trastornos, e incluye además los principios básicos del abordaje de las urgencias neurológicas. Todo ello, tratando de acercarse al día a día del trabajo con pacientes que padecen algún tipo de enfermedad neurológica y alejándose de la complejidad que a menudo presentan las obras de esta especialidad.

Neurología práctica (Spanish Edition)

Para obtener un diagnóstico clínico considere los cinco datos más frecuentes (durante la anamnesis, la exploración física o en los estudios de laboratorio) de un padecimiento específico. Si al menos tres de los cinco elementos no están presentes en un paciente es probable que el diagnóstico sea erróneo. 
C. MILLER FISHER 
A partir de este precepto del Dr. C. Miller Fisher, uno de los grandes neurólogos del siglo XX, los doctores Ilya Kister y José Biller han identificado los cinco hallazgos más frecuentes de los 100 síndromes y padecimientos neurológicos más comunes e importantes. 
El distintivo formato de 100 diagnósticos clave en Neurología incluye sinopsis con las características principales de cada enfermedad o padecimiento, ilustraciones y preguntas de estudio, los cuales hacen de esta obra una excelente herramienta para construir una base sólida de conocimientos en neurología y una referencia rápida para médicos de primer contacto o profesionales de la neurología. 
A través de 17 capítulos, esta obra breve y concisa sirve también como referencia para revisar con rapidez las características clínicas, diagnósticas y terapéuticas de un padecimiento específico y determinar si la presentación clínica del paciente cumple la regla «tres de cinco» de Fisher.
