  Radical prostatectomy : surgical perspectives

  James A. Eastham, Edward M. Schaeffer, editors.

  Summary: Radical Prostatectomy: Surgical Perspectives provides surgeons with a comprehensive overview of the anatomical approach to radical prostatectomy, whether done through an open (retropubic) or robotic-assisted laparoscopic approach. All chapters are structured to provide a step-by-step approach to the most technically demanding and most common oncologic procedure in urology surgery. The book includes highly practical presentations of typical surgical patients seen in the clinical practice of urology and relies heavily on illustrations and intraoperative photographs to clearly complement the text. In addition, the book ?includes a detailed description of the management of uncommon but potentially serious intraoperative complications, including major vascular injury, ureteral transaction, and rectotomy. Written by authors from a variety of integrated disciplines, including anesthesia, cardiology, and nursing Radical Prostatectomy: Surgical Perspectives is a unique and valuable resource in the field of urology both for those currently in training and for those already in surgical practices.

  L'angioventriculotomographie dans l'étude des anévrysmes artério-veineux profonds. [Angioventriculography in the study of deep arteriovenous aneurysms].

  Neurochirurgie. 1977;23(6-7):463-73.

  The authors discuss the value of angioventriculotomography before surgery in deep arteriovenous malformations. This new procedure was performed in 2 infants and 3 children. In all cases, it was possible to know the precise relations of the lesions to deep structures of the central nervous system. Surgery was then contra indicated in two patients. In the remaining three patients, it not only proved to be of great value before deciding surgery, but it also determined the entire surgical procedure. The only incident encountered in this series was a rapidly regressive convulsive seizure in an infant of 3 months.
