This strategic book joins the classical brain anatomy to the challenges of neurosurgery approaches. Its thirty illustrated chapters connect basic concepts to the specialists experience in the operating room. They also provide didactic tips and tricks for accessing the brain into to the surface, cisterns, central core, ventricles and skull base. The Brain Anatomy and Neurosurgical Approaches is focused on neurosurgeons in training and those who need updated information and technical tips on how to deal with neurosurgical patients, as well as with anatomical challenges in real surgeries. Neurosurgeons, residents and students will have a helpful source of study and research.
