Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Cheirolumbar Dysostosis: Developmental Brachycheiry and Stenosis of the Bony Vertebral Lumbar Canal
Book SynopsisIt was with great pleasure that I accepted Professor Wackenheim's invitation to write the preface of this most interesting monograph. During the international course on neuroradiology in Obernai, organized by Professor Wackenheim in 1978, an entire day was devoted to discussions about various aspects of stenosis of the lumbar vertebral canal. As Professor Wackenheim and his group, in particular Dr. E. Babin, had thorough· ly studied this field, it was an excellent occasion for the exchange of views through personal contact. Their support of basic views such as attributing the cause of stenosis to a developmental disturbance of growth of the neural element - the vertebral arc- and spontaneous agreement about essentials in classification and nomenclature facili tated this exchange. Reading the present monograph made me think back to 1949 when I wrote my first publication on stenosis of the lumbar vertebral canal in a French volume that com memorated my teacher in neurosurgery, Professor Clovis Vincent. During the following years it was impossible to publish a more detailed paper on the subject in international journals since their editorial boards did not believe in its occurrence. My first English papers were published in the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (1954, 1955), but it was only during the 1970s that this form of stenosis became more universally recog nized.Table of ContentsA.

World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd Understanding And Preventing Sudden Death: Your
Book SynopsisSudden death is an uncommon condition. But when it occurs, especially in a young person, the acute loss can generate a substantial amount of grief with a great sense of disbelief. This mysterious and dreadful condition instils much fear and anxiety into the living, and more specifically for family members and friends. Understandably, the apprehension is brought about by the unexpectedness of the event and uncertainty of the consequences. The feeling of uneasiness is largely attributed to the lack of information regarding this condition. However in recent years, several causes of sudden death have been clarified. Treatment modalities have improved and reduced the occurrence of dying suddenly.This book is meant for anyone who wants to know more about sudden death. It aims to diminish its terror by explaining the various conditions that predispose individuals to sudden death and ways which may prevent it from occurring.

John Wiley and Sons Ltd Neurodegeneration
Book SynopsisMost textbooks on neurodegenerative disorders have used a classification scheme based upon either clinical syndromes or anatomical distribution of the pathology. In contrast, this book looks to the future and uses a classification based upon molecular mechanisms, rather than clinical or anatomical boundaries. Major advances in molecular genetics and the application of biochemical and immunocytochemical techniques to neurodegenerative disorders have generated this new approach. Throughout most of the current volume, diseases are clustered according to the proteins that accumulate within cells (e.g. tau, a-synuclein and TDP-43) and in the extracellular compartments (e.g. ß-amyloid and prion proteins) or according to a shared pathogenetic mechanism, such as trinucleotide repeats, that are a feature of specific genetic disorders. Chapters throughout the book conform to a standard lay-out for ease of access by the reader and are written by a panel Trade Review“Overall, this textbook provides useful and systematic information on the basic mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases. It will provide useful for resident trainees, neurologists and pathologists.” (Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences, 1 November 2012) Table of ContentsList of Contributors, viii Preface, xii List of Abbreviations, xiii Part 1 Introduction: Basic Mechanisms of Neurodegeneration 1 Introduction to Neurodegeneration: The Molecular Pathology of Dementia and Movement Disorders, 3 Dennis W.

Jessica Kingsley Publishers Violence: Reflections on Our Deadliest Epidemic
Book SynopsisJames Gilligan lays the foundation for a complete re-thinking of the nature and meaning of violence in society. He reveals the motives of men who commit horrifying crimes, men who not only kill other people, but also destroy themselves rather than suffer shame and loss of self-respect.He focuses on how feelings of shame cause violent and vengeful behaviour, and argues that conventional punitive legal and penal systems which are based on notions of justice and retribution perpetuate violent behaviour. He was called in to the Massachusetts prison system because of the high rates of suicides and murders within state prisons there; when he left these rates had dropped almost to zero. This keenly argued and ground-breaking book is essential reading for everyone touched by violence, and all those who are working to prevent it and its consequencesTrade ReviewJames Gilligan has written a stunning book about violence. As a psychiatrist who has spent twenty-five years of his professional life treating men who committed murder, Gilligan draws poignantly on his work with prisoners to help us understand what motivates desperate men. In the end, he offers a compelling psychoanalytic explanation of violence while calling on society to take social, economic and cultural measures to help prevent the 'deadly epidemic' from spreading. -- Judith Friedlander, PhD., Dean of the Graduate Faculty of Political and Social Science, New School for Social ResearchDr. Gilligan offers a personal and passionate summing up of his decades of empathic clinical work with men who have committed horrible crimes, and he succeeds in deepening our understanding of their inner lives, the dark world of prisons they inhabit, and the violence that pervades... society. -- Donald J. Cohen, M.D., Director, Yale Child Study CenterExtraordinary. Gilligan's recommendations concerning what does work to prevent violence...are extremely convincing...A wise and careful, enormously instructive book. -- Owen Renik, M.D., editor * Psychoanalytic Quarterly *Important and absorbing...a valuable book deserving a widespread and thoughtful readership. -- Norval Morris, Boston Globe, former Dean of University of Chicago Law SchoolTable of ContentsPrologue: Violence as Tragedy.

American Registry of Pathology Tumors of the Pancreas
Book SynopsisFree digital access available with every print purchase. See inside the book for more details.While classification of pancreatic neoplasms has not evolved significantly since 2007, data related to the molecular underpinnings that characterize each type of neoplasm have grown exponentially in the past 15 years. The current multimodal study of pancreatic neoplasms has allowed a better understanding of tumor biology, more closely linking the mor¬phologic findings with clinical outcomes and targeted treatment. The prognosis of conventional pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma remains very poor, but some promise is on the horizon based on novel treatment approaches and the increase in earlier diagnosis. Furthermore, intensive study of other pancreatic neoplasms has led to a clearer recognition that each type has distinctive biology and behavior that is often not so highly aggressive. This sense of optimism may help drive a resurgence of interest in pancreatic pathology.

American Registry of Pathology Tumors of the Ovary and Fallopian Tube
Book SynopsisThe complexity of ovary and fallopian tube pathology is striking, with dozens of tumor types. There is a greater appreciation now of the importance of hereditary cancer syndromes in ovarian and tubal malignancies, as two common autosomal dominant hereditary cancer predisposition syndromes include carcinomas of ovary or fallopian tube. This book is organized following the structure and terminology of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of Female Genital Tumors, 5th edition. It includes some new entities that have been described since that book's publication in 2020 and provides detailed discussion of differential diagnosis, relevant ancillary tests, and strategies to approach diagnosis. In addition, discussions of the underlying biology of these tumors, as it relates to their diagnosis, are also presented. This fascicle provides an opportunity for deeper reading and quiet reflection about the progress that has been made in our understanding of tumors of the ovary since the previous landmark edition was published in 1998, as well as a respect for the numerous challenges that remain.

Book SynopsisFree digital access available with every print purchase. See inside the book for more details.The classification and characteristics of tumors and tumor-like lesions of the female lower genital tract have remained relatively constant over the years, though shifts in nomenclature have occurred, and a comprehensive review of the diverse histomorphology and differential diagnosis of lesions at these sites is of paramount importance. Although female lower genital tract pathology is largely dominated by epithelial tumors, the pathologist will also encounter mesenchymal, melanocytic, and hematopoietic neoplasms. This fascicle provides a comprehensive discussion of these categories with emphasis on their wid¬ening clinical and pathologic spectrum as well as their evolving molecular landscape. The book conveys the authors’ extensive experience as pathologists devoted to women’s health and to ad¬vancing understanding of gynecologic disease.

American Registry of Pathology Non-Neoplastic Disorders of the Endocrine System
Book SynopsisFree digital access available with every print purchase. See inside the book for more details.In endocrine pathology, surgical pathologists often concentrate on neoplasms at the expense of nonneoplastic disease processes. This is unfortunate as nonneoplastic endocrine disorders are many times more common in the population. As in all fields of medicine, nonneo¬plastic endocrine diseases can closely mimic the neoplastic; an awareness of all aspects of pathology underpins routine clinical practice. This Fifth Series Fascicle offers pathologists and clinicians an opportunity to develop an increased understanding of nontumor endocrine pathology in order to inform patient care.

American Registry of Pathology Atlas of Placental Pathology
Book SynopsisThe placenta is an organ often neglected by surgical pathologists and clinicians alike. Placental diagnoses provide risk assessment for infant prognosis, recurrent risk for future pregnancies, and explanatory findings. There is widespread interest in placental diagnosis for the antenatal determinants of adult disease, inborn errors of metabolism, specific infections, malignancies, and assessing placental function in real time with the ultimate goal of affecting treatment. Due to the difficulties inherent in studying human gestation and gestational pathologies, much of what is known about the relevance of placental pathology is biased toward personal experience and retrospective studies. However, this book presents evidence-based information to the reader. The authors emphasize the need for an educated and directed sampling of the placenta through gross examination which will result in a better and more useful final diagnosis.
