Summary:

During the last three decades, minimally invasive cranial ("keyhole") surgery has proven to be an effective and safe approach that reduces postoperative patient recovery time and pain. Yet, aside from endoscopic endonasal surgery, a transcranial subset of procedures is not taught as standard practice in the majority of training programs around the world. Video Atlas of Minimally Invasive Cranial Surgery: A Step-by-Step Approach by minimally invasive neurosurgery experts Walter C. Jean, Franco Rubino, Ivo Peto, and Kunal Vakharia underscores the importance of incorporating groundbreaking approaches in the standard repertoire of contemporary neurosurgery and modernizing its teaching. The book is organized by nine cranial regions, encompassing the orbit, sella/parasellar, anterior cranial fossa/circle of Willis, third ventricle, pineal, petrous apex, infratemporal fossa, retrosigmoid/lateral suboccipital, and clivus and craniocervical, followed by Part 10 that covers supratentorial approaches. Each of the chapters is consistently formatted with an introduction, followed by pertinent anatomy, brief case discussions with accompanying videos, operative setups, approach selection, exposure, key steps, and potential risks and avoidance strategies. -- Publisher
