This text addresses vascular anomalies and the management of these diverse and clinically challenging set of conditions which have significant impact on patient function, quality of life and, in certain cases, survival. The text covers each category and type of vascular anomaly and the unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges they pose. The chapters will also include fundamental scientific literature pertaining to each specific condition to help clinicians and clinical researchers better assess and manage vascular anomalies of the head and neck. Each vascular condition will be supported with medical photographs and radiographic images, summaries of diagnostic and therapeutic options, a list of syndromes and genetic mutations known to be associated with each anomaly, case studies, and clinical and research pearls from national and international leaders in the field. Management of Head and Neck Vascular Anomalies: Evidenced-basedAssessment will be an invaluable resource for otolaryngologists, plastic surgeons, general and general pediatric surgeons, orthopaedic surgeons, dermatologists, interventional radiologists, residents and fellows in these fields, and researchers with interest in vascular anomalies of the head and neck.
Vascular anomalies comprise a diverse and clinically challenging set of conditions with significant impact on patient function and quality of life and, in certain cases, on survival. They affect both children and adults and may occur at any anatomic site. Each category and type of vascular anomaly poses unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges that cannot be addressed adequately without understanding the fundamental scientific literature pertaining that that specific clinical entity. The combination of this clinical diversity with rapid expansion of knowledge in medical and surgical therapy, genetics, and molecular and developmental biology makes this proposition challenging for any provider who sees patients with these conditions.
We aim to develop a text that will provide clinicians and clinical researchers a strong foundation in the scientific literature pertaining to assessment and care of vascular anomalies. The text will achieve this goal through a
1. Medical photographs and radiographic images illustrating key characteristics of the condition
2. A summary of current diagnostic and therapeutic options
3. A summary of the evidence supporting each of the options in #2
4. “Expert insights”: clinical and research pearls from national and international leaders in the care of the condition
5. A list of syndromes and genetic mutations known to be associated with the entity under discussion, as well as a summary of known biologic development and pathophysiology.
6. Reproductions of 3-5 seminal studies pertaining to the condition under discussion.
Items #1 and 2 are common to most texts but are important in keeping the volume useful to readers. Items #3, 4, 5, and 6, in contrast, are relatively unique to this book. The combination of these elements is not ava
ilable in any otolaryngology book of which we are aware, nor in any volume on vascular anomalies. By including all of these elements in each chapter, we hope that readers can quickly develop a comprehensive and evidence-based understanding of both the “art” and the “science” of treating a given condition, taking advantage of both experts’ experience and scientific evidence to provide the best and most confident clinical care possible. From the evidence standpoint, we have reviewed approximately 800 papers thus far to begin developing a list of possible references to include in #6 above.Get Evidence-Based Management of Head and Neck Vascular Anomalies by at the best price and quality guaranteed only at Werezi Africa's largest book ecommerce store.
