Fetal and Neonatal Neurology and Neurosurgery, 3rd Editionis the definitive reference work on the normal and abnormal development of the brain from conception through to the end of the first year of life.
- Introductory sections on Structural Development of the CNS and Function Assessment of the CNS are followed by extensive and detailed chapters on all clinical conditions of the fetal and neonatal CNS, from congenital malformations and seizures to Hemorrhage, Perinatal Asphyxia, Infections and much more. The management of all clinical conditions is discussed as well as detailed information on prognosis of these complex cases to enable you to discuss the childs future with parents.
This authoritative resource is written and edited by an international team of experts, and will give you all the information you need to diagnose, treat and provide prognostic information on this complex and vulnerable group of patients.
Reviews

"updated to reflect the many advances in the field of disorders of the nervous system
This is a text that can be dipped into for information on both rarities and common central nervous system problems encountered in fetal and neonatal medicine as well as being a 'one-stop' resource for more in-depth information.
It has clearly become the definitive sourcebook in this field"

Features
