Críticas

“This book covers the important, fascinating, and controversial subject of degenerative disc disease of the lumbar spine. ... The editors and authors do a wonderful job putting together a precise review of the literature on an evolving topic. It is extremely important for spine surgeons of all levels to learn new techniques and stay current on the concepts involved in arguably the most common problem we encounter every day: patients with back pain.” (Fernando Techy, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 2016)

In this book, leading international specialists in the field join forces to discuss topics, issues and approaches that are of key importance in the optimal treatment of lumbar degenerative disk disease.

Detailed attention is drawn to the most important aspects to be considered when approaching the patient and making treatment decisions. The role of conservative management is appraised, and surgical techniques and their indications are carefully described. In the concluding section, some of the top specialists from across the world reflect on the lessons that they have learned during lifetimes in spinal surgery.
