    Summary: "All neurosurgeons must undergo rigorous training in the laboratory and practice bypass techniques repetitively before performing microneurosurgery on a patient. Microsurgical Basics and Bypass Techniques by Evgenii Belykh, Nikolay Martirosyan, and M. Yashar S. Kalani is a comprehensive yet succinct manual on fundamental laboratory techniques rarely included in clinical textbooks. The resource simplifies repetitive microsurgical practice in the laboratory by providing a menu of diverse, progressively challenging exercises. Step-by-step instructions accompanied by easy-to-understand illustrations, expert commentary, and videos effectively bridge the gap between laboratory practice and operating room performance. The book starts with an opening chapter on four founding principles of microsurgical practice inherited from great thinkers and concludes with a chapter featuring cerebrovascular bypass cases. Chapters 2-8 offer a complete one-week curriculum, with a different lab exercise each day, focused on learning basic microsurgery skills"-- Provided by publisher.

    We have examined the effects of complement depletion, brought about by cobra venom factor (CVF), on the clearance of radiolabelled BSA from the kidney in acute serum sickness in rabbits. The decomplemented group showed a significant decrease in the rate of clearance of renal-bound antigen with a mean half-clearance time of 19.5 days (range 9.3--60) vs 11.3 (range 8.7--15) for the control group. C3 was rapidly cleared from the glomerulus (as assessed by immunofluorescence) when further deposition was prevented by treatment with CVF. Glomerular immune complexes apparently activated the alternative pathway in vitro. These findings suggest that in immune complex nephritis, the clearance of deposited complexes from the kidney is complement-dependent.
