Tissue Engineering and Biodegradable Equivalents: Scientific and Clinical Applications surverys a wide range of natural and synthetic compounds used in tissue, bone, muscle, cartilage, and organ replacement and discusses recent methods for processing, characterizing, and testing these biomaterials. The book offers effective techniques to manipulate cells and growth factors successfully in the construction, restoration, and regeneration of tissues. Topics include biodegradable scaffolds for meniscus tissue, cortical bone grafts, gene therapy applications, skin biomaterials, and urology applications.

Advances in Spinal Fusion reveals a new generation of materials and devices for enhanced operations in spinal fusion. This reference showcases emerging research and technologies in areas such as biodegradable implants, drug delivery, stem cell isolation and transfection, cell encapsulation and immobilization, and the design of 2D and 3D scaffolds for cells. It captures a cascade of innovations crucial to increased healing and decreased morbidity in spinal fusion methods and mechanics and addresses current standards in analytical methodology and quality control, it describes the selection of biomaterials for improved biocompatibility, biostability, and structure/function relationships.

Advances in Spinal Fusion: Molecular Science, BioMechanics, and Clinical Management

'Endoscopic Spinal Surgery' covers the latest developments in minimally invasive techniques now used in spinal surgery. Applied anatomy, indications, and outcomes are all addressed by an international team of experienced contributors.

This book provides a timely, comprehensive and evidence-based review of minimally invasive surgery of the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine. Minimally invasive techniques are now aided by more advanced endoscopic instruments, video, and computerised navigation systems broadening the range of surgical procedures that can be carried out with similar efficacy as traditional open spinal surgeries, without the significant burden on the patient recovery and rehabilitation. This book thoroughly reviews the preclinical and clinical data on minimally invasive spinal surgery and describes and illustrates the current effective techniques. An authoritative, international team of contributors add their clinical experience and expertise to provide a clear, authoritative and practical guide. The book is organised in four sections covering cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine regions with a final section on the latest advances in technologies and the cost-effectiveness of current treatments.

Cervical Spine (Contemporary Endoscopic Spine Surgery)

Contemporary Endoscopic Spine Surgery brings the reader the most up-to-date information on the endoscopy of the spine. Key opinion leaders from around the world have come together to present the clinical evidence behind their competitive endoscopic spinal surgery protocols. Chapters in the series cover a range of aspects of spine surgery including spinal pain generators, preoperative workup with modern independent predictors of favorable clinical outcomes with endoscopy, anesthesia in an outpatient setting, management of complications, and a fresh look at technology advances in a historical context. The reader will have a first-row seat during the illustrative discussions of expanded surgical indications from herniated disc to more complex clinical problems, including stenosis, instability, and deformity in patients with advanced degenerative disease of the human spine. Contemporary Endoscopic Spine Surgery is divided into three volumes: Cervical Spine, Lumbar Spine, and Advanced Technologies to capture an accurate snapshot in time of this fast-moving field. It is intended as a comprehensive go-to reference text for surgeons in graduate residency and postgraduate fellowship training programs and for practicing spine surgeons interested in looking for the scientific foundation for their practice expansion into endoscopic surgery.\nThis volume (Cervical Spine) covers the following topics Cervical Endoscopy: Historical Perspectives, Present & Future Anesthesia For Minimally Invasive Surgery Of The Cervical Algorithms To Choose Between Anterior And Posterior Cervical Endoscopy Contemporary Clinical Decision Making In Full Endoscopic Cervical Spine Surgery Indications And Outcomes With Endoscopic Posterior Cervical Rhizotomy Anterior Endoscopic Cervical Discectomy Anterior Transcorporeal Approach Of Percutaneous Endoscopic Cervical Discectomy Anterior Endoscopic Cervical Discectomy And Foraminoplasty For Herniated Disc And Lateral Canal Stenosis Posterior Full Endoscopic Cervical Discectomy & Foraminotomy Endoscopic Decompression For Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy
