• Sommario/riassunto: This book provides an in-depth review of the knowledge of craniospinal arachnoid cysts, with emphasis on epidemiology, genetics, neuroimaging, clinical presentations, and operative management. Sections on postoperative complications, outcome, and medicolegal aspects of this entity are also included. This richly illustrated book will help the reader in choosing the most appropriate way to manage this challenging neurosurgical disease process. This work also considers future areas of investigation and innovative therapeutic philosophies. This comprehensive reference book will be an ideal source for neuroscientists at all levels of their training in multiple different disciplines, from graduate students to specific research scientists studying this topic, including neurosurgeons, neurologists, neuroradiologists, pediatricians, and those seeking both basic and more sophisticated information regarding craniospinal arachnoid cysts.
