Description

Written by an international group of more than 70 leading experts, this volume is a comprehensive, up to date review of the anatomy, biomechanics, etiology, physiopathology, diagnosis, and treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis. Coverage includes detailed information on classification, etiology, diagnostic imaging, clinical assessment, and physiopathology. A major portion of the book describes the full range of current techniques and devices for surgical treatment. Other chapters examine conservative therapies such as drugs, exercise, pain clinic approaches, and spinal cord stimulation. The final section focuses on outcome studies and cost-effectiveness considerations in the management of spinal stenosis. More than 200 illustrations complement the text.
