Inhaltsangabe

Comprehensive Management of Spina Bifida focuses on the treatment and management of patients with congenital defects of spina bifida cystica. It emphasizes the importance of a multidisciplinary approach for children afflicted with this disease, as well as the role of the pediatrician as a primary care giver. Topics discussed include management of the newborn, the symptomatic nature of the Arnold-Chiari malformation, management of legs and feet, management of the kyphos, methodology and institution of intermittent catheterization, the potential need for surgery of the bladder and ureters, and psychosocial aspects. This book is invaluable to neurosurgeons, orthopedists, urologists, pediatricians, nurses, social service workers, and psychologists involved in the day-to-day care of children afflicted with spina bifida cystica. It will also be beneficial as a reference resource for patients and their families to educate themselves and use as a starting point for discussions with their care givers.
