Fracture-Dislocations of the WristAccording to reports in the literature, despite the severe disruption of carpal anatomy, fracture-dislocations of the wrist are missed on clinical and radiographic examination in a high percentage of cases. Orthopedic surgeons’ lack of familiarity with these injuries is one of the factors contrib-uting to failed or delayed diagnosis. This richly illustrated book covers all types of wrist disloca-tion and fracture-dislocation. Detailed informa-tion is provided on anatomy and biomechanics, while terminology and classification of injuries are explained. Treatment options are thoroughly anal-ysed, with special emphasis on surgical treatment, which is presented step by step.

Features 7 Detailed guide to the diagnosis and treat-ment of all forms of fracture-dislocation of the wrist 7 Includes helpful information on anatomy, biomechanics, terminology, and classifi-cation of injuries 7 Step by step presentation of surgical treatments 7 Richly illustrated, drawing exclusively on cases treated by the author

Contents Part I General Aspects. 1 Wrist Anatomy.- 2 Wrist Biomechanics.- Part II Perilunate Frac-ture-Dislocations. 3 Acute Perilunate Dislocation.- 4 Scaphocapitate Syndrome.- 5 Palmar Perilunate Dislocation.- 6 Delayed and Chronic Perilunate Dislocation.- Part III Proximal and Distal Wrist Dislocations. 7 Radiocarpal Dislocations.- 8 Car-pometacarpal Dislocations.- Part IV Other Carpal Dislocations. 9 Axial Dislocations.- 10 Isolated Dislocations of Carpal Bones.

Sleep Disorders in WomenA Guide to Practical Management

In Sleep Disorders in Women: A Guide to Practi-cal Management, 2nd Edition, a multidisciplinary panel of eminent researchers and practicing clini-cians comprehensively updates the multifaceted aspects of sleep disorders in women at different stages of life, illuminating the unique impact that each reproductive and endocrine stage has on both normal sleep and sleep disorders. This title not only introduces primary care physicians and health care providers to the discipline of sleep dis-orders in women, it also will appeal to a broader set of specialists as it summarizes the latest, cutting-edge research and presents it in a succinct and clinically relevant manner. The goal of this book is to help physicians recognize the symp-tom patterns of sleep disorders in their female patients, guide them in diagnosing and treating these patients in a timely fashion, and help in the elimination of gender bias in sleep medicine research and care. An invaluable addition to the literature, Sleep Disorders in Women: A Guide to Practical Management, 2nd Edition again fills an important niche by being an accessible, comprehensive, multidisciplinary review on sleep disorders in women.

Features 7 Comprehensive, multidisciplinary review of all aspects of sleep disorders in women 7 Empha-sis on endocrinological and hormonal factors in women’s sleep disorders 7 Focus on treat-ing female sleep disorders according to stage of life 7 Detailed discussion of insomnia, sleep disorders in pregnancy and menopause, obstruc-tive sleep apnea, restless legs syndrome, and others

It covers the full range of relevant conditions: inherited skin disorders; nevi; viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasit-ic infections; acne; allergic diseases; autoimmune skin disorders; connective tissue diseases; tumors; and miscellaneous conditions. Each comparison addresses the differential diagnosis between two (or occasionally three or four) dermatologi-cal conditions, containing between two and six images and a short text emphasizing the clinical differences between the diseases in question. At the end of each chapter, a summary highlights one or two characteristics essential for the differential diagnosis. The author is an expert who, since 1982, has been responsible for a column devoted to the differential diagnosis of pediatric dermatology in the European Journal of Pediatric Dermatology. The volume will represent an ideal tool for pedi-atric dermatologists, pediatricians, and GPs, and will help them in the diagnostic process.

Incontinence anale de l’adulteL’incontinence anale est définie par l’incapacité pour un sujet de retenir les matières, en dehors des épisodes de défécations volontaires. Néan-moins, cette définition, ne tient pas compte de la gravité du handicap, et doit être complétée par la description du mécanisme physiopathologique à la base des pertes de matières. En effet, il est particulièrement important de pouvoir différen-cier les patients souffrant d’incontinence par déficit sphinctérien de ceux incontinents à cause d’une diarrhée sans aucun trouble sphinctérien. De manière schématique, l’incontinence peut être secondaire à une atteinte du système capacitif rectal et/ou du système résistif sphinctérien, d’une atteinte nerveuse et/ou musculaire. Cependant, en pratique, l’incontinence est le plus souvent multi-factorielle avec plusieurs dysfonctionnements présents chez un même patient.

OrthopantomographyAlthough orthopantomography (OPT) is a very frequently employed radiological examina-tion, even the expert radiologist can encounter difficulty in reporting the findings owing to the specific terminology, the nature of the diagnostic queries, and the need to describe precisely the clinical implications for the dentist. Additionally, artifacts are a frequent occurrence, and many radiologists and dentists are unfamiliar with their causes and solutions. Methodological inaccuracies during the execution of OPTs also have important clinical implications. For all of these reasons, this richly illustrated monograph on OPT sets out to describe in detail diverse technical and method-ological aspects of the examination, from image acquisition through to artifact generation due to lack of experience or malfunctioning. Possible so-lutions are suggested for all of the most common diagnostic and methodological problems.

Disturbi specifici del linguaggio, disprassie e funzioni esecutiveCon una raccolta di casi clinici ed esempi di terapia

Lo sviluppo cognitivo, linguistico e motorio sono stati a lungo considerati e studiati come entità separate. Dagli anni Ottanta in poi diversi studi e ricerche in ambito neuropsicologico hanno invece cominciato a evidenziare e confermare una stretta correlazione tra aspetti linguistici, motorio-pras-sici e competenze relative alla sfera delle funzioni esecutive.

A Radiologically-Guided Approach to Musculoskeletal AnatomyFor many healthcare professionals, musculoskel-etal diseases represent the “bread and butter” topic after graduation. Therefore, radiological education in respect of the musculoskeletal system is vital in ensuring adequate patient management and cost-effective use of healthcare financial resources. This book illustrates the clinical anatomy of the musculoskeletal system by means of images obtained using commercially available imaging equipment and the three main imaging techniques employed today – magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, and ultrasound. Based on an integrated multimodality approach, each anatomical region is presented with a special focus on clinically relevant anatomical details and the characteristic findings observed in patients referred by physicians.

Features 7 Imaging musculoskeletal anatomy at a glance 7 Bridge from a standard anatomical atlas to diagnostic imaging 7 Guide to the everyday interpretation of imaging studies 7 Quick refer-ence for young physicians and residents Integrated multimodality approach involving MRI, CT, and US

Morbid Obesity in AdolescentsConservative Treatment and Surgical Approaches

As the worldwide prevalence of morbid obesity among adolescents continues to rise, recent years have seen a large increase in the performance of adolescent bariatric surgery. While surgical inter-vention often becomes necessary when conserva-tive weight-loss therapies have failed, no standards regarding the post-operative regimen and long-term management of adolescent patients have been established. Thus, the treatment of obesity and its co-morbidities requires a multidisciplinary approach, taking into account epidemiological, clinical, nutritional, and genetic aspects of morbid obesity in the pediatric age group. This volume discusses both conventional therapy and surgical options for morbid obesity in the pediatric age group. In the first part, obesity-related diseases, genetics, and psychological factors are analyzed. The second part focuses on current bariatric surgery procedures, including dietary restrictions and guidelines to prevent nutritional deficiencies common after surgery. Therefore, the book will prove an invaluable resource for pediatricians, sur-geons, nutritionists, dieticians, and all other health professionals who treat adolescent obesity.

Features 7 Covers the entire range of adolescent obesity management from diagnosis to long-term treat-ment 7 Establishes guidelines and standards for the use of bariatric procedures 7 With contribu-tions by international experts

Advances in Communication Research to Reduce Childhood ObesityRates of childhood obesity are alarmingly high and increasing each year. Studies have shown that obese children are more likely to become obese adults and are likely to suffer with numerous health consequences like coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, and Type II diabetes, among others. Studies also indicate that television viewing and exposure to advertising for food products influences children’s attitudes toward, food prefer-ences and food purchase requests for foods with low nutritional value. It is important to better understand the role of media in childhood obesity and to learn how media may be used to address this issue in a positive way. This book focuses on communication and media research that can have an impact on reducing childhood obesity. Emphasis is placed on topics related to how the media communicate health-related messages about food, nutrition and diet that influence child-hood obesity.

Features 7 Brings research from media and communi-cation studies to the design of health interven-tions to address child obesity 7 Special focus on social media and racial and ethnic health disparities 7 Emphasis on topics related to how the media communicate health-related messages about food, nutrition and diet that influence child-hood obesity
