Inhaltsangabe

Patient care is becoming more specialized. MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC) focuses on the care of oncology patients. On the surgical arm of cancer treatment, we have developed special expertise in all the surgical subspecialties. As a result, the anesthesia has also become extremely specialized too. The Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, chaired by Dr. D. L. Brown, has developed a subspecialty practice in the treatment of surgical neurological oncology patients who present for tumor resection: The Neuroanesthesia Team. This book has been written by members of the neuroanesthesia team here at MDACC. These authors are Assistant through full Professors who are clinicians (perform cases daily) and teachers (teach senior anesthesia residents). In addition to our anesthesiologist authors, we have been privileged to have two very prominent full Professors of Neurosurgery involved with the book. Dr. DeMonte has co-edited the entire book as well as the skull base chapter (his area of expertise). Dr. McCutcheon has co-authored the pituitary chapter.This book is intended to outline our style of executing these anesthetics-that is-our NEURosurgical anesthetic RECIPES. The goal of this manual is to aid the new anesthesia oncology clinician, fellow, or resident in quickly reviewing OUR approach to the neurosurgical cases at MDACC. It is intended only as a guideline and is by no means the only approach to these types of cases.The manual has three parts. Firstly, it describes anesthesia for craniotomies for tumors; next, for those tumors located in the skull base; and thirdly, it outlines approaches for spine surgery. It is organized in a pre-operative, intra-operative and post-operative format to allow for a quick and easy review. Patient care is becoming more specialized.
