About This Book

The art of aneurysm microsurgery in a beautifully illustrated, step-by-step volume

Finalist in 2012 IBPA Benjamin Franklin Awards

Seven Aneurysms: Tenets and Techniques for Clipping combines the instructive nature of a textbook with the visual aspects of an atlas to guide readers through the surgical principles, approaches, and techniques they need to dissect and clip cerebral aneurysms.

Comprised of three concise sections, the book distills the distinguished author's vast experience into a series of easily accessible tutorials presented through clear, systematic descriptions and stunning, full-color illustrations. The first section explains the critical concepts and basic tenets of aneurysm microsurgery followed by a section on the various craniotomies and exposures necessary for successful clipping. The final section covers microsurgical anatomy, dissection strategies, and clipping techniques for each of the seven most common aneurysm types that are the focus of this book.

Features:

  • Strategies for handling the seven aneurysms most often seen by neurosurgeons: PCoA, MCA, ACoA, OphA, PcaA, basilar bifurcation, and PICA
  • 383 full-color surgical photographs demonstrate operative techniques; 77 high-quality drawings display anatomy and spatial relationships
  • Succinct text facilitates quick reading and easy reference

Clipping remains an essential treatment method for the most frequently encountered aneurysms. This must-have guide will enable neurosurgery residents, fellows, or practicing neurosurgeons to handle the majority of the aneurysms they will encounter with confidence and poise.

Foreword 
This 
book 
is 
intended 
to 
instruct 
neurosurgeons 
in 
the 
art 
of 
performing 
aneurysm 
surgery. 
In 
one 
condensed 
volume, 
it 
offers 
a 
systematic 
tutorial 
to 
the 
common 
aneurysms 
encountered 
by 
neurosurgeons. 
It 
is 
probably 
as 
close 
to 
a 
step-by-step 
description 
of 
a 
process 
that 
depends 
equally 
heavily 
on 
in-depth 
knowledge 
of 
both 
anatomy 
and 
surgi-
cal 
technique 
and 
the 
indefinable 
quality 
of 
surgical 
finesse 
as 
a 
book 
will 
ever 
be. 
Trainees, 
in 
particular, 
will 
long 
be 
grateful 
for 
Dr. 
Lawton’s 
clear, 
concise, 
and 
lively 
descrip-
tions 
of 
basic 
surgical 
principles, 
techniques, 
approaches, 
and 
strategies, 
combined 
with 
a 
generous 
number 
of 
excellent 
illustrations 
and 
intraoperative 
photographs 
to 
underscore 
his 
text. 
This 
elegant 
volume 
by 
a 
superb 
surgeon, 
in 
whom 
I 
take 
considerable 
paternal 
pride 
as 
he 
did 
his 
residency 
training 
at 
Barrow 
Neurological 
Institute, 
is 
likely 
to 
be 
the 
standard 
text 
for 
how 
to 
clip 
aneurysms 
resistant 
to 
endo-
vascular 
approaches 
for 
years 
to 
come.
