Endovascular and Neurovascular Surgery for Spinal Vascular Malformations

This book introduces the great advances made in the techniques, devices and treatment concepts which benefit for spinal vascular malformations. It also covers several spinal vascular malformations that can be treated successfully with minimally invasive therapy.

Spinal vascular malformations constitute rare pathological entities characterized by considerable angioarchitectural variation. Insufficient understanding of normal spinal vascular anatomy and abnormal vascular anatomy constituting these lesions restricts the development of surgical treatments specifically tailored to type of malformation. Spinal vascular malformation therapy should include conservative, microsurgical, endovascular, stereotactic, and/or multimodal therapy.

Attendings, fellows, residents, medical students or anyone interested in sharpening their diagnostic and therapeutic skill set will benefit from reading this text.
