Industry Reviews

Useful, practical information packaged in a case history format for quick reference...Drs. Vaccaro and Albert have succeeded in enlisting the participation of a great number of highly-experienced spine surgeons...should be used as a resource for those interested in obtaining alternate opinions on treatment methodology. --Journal of Neurosurgery

"Very useful and educational for many readers...cases range from the routine and commonplace to the rare and exotic...a well-thought out and appropriately detailed reference...particularly well suited for residents and fellows as well as for those who are studying for an examination....the innovative format will be a refreshing change for readers interested in spinal disorders." --Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery

"Provides the reader with a sound clinical approach to a specific case, rather than a broad discussion...each case is well illustrated with appropriate radiographs and reasoned discussions of treatment options." --Journal of Orthopaedic Sports and Physical Therapy

"Easy to read...concise style...a quick reference book, useful in a daily practice for everyone involved in spine surgery: orthopaedic residents, orthopaedic surgeons, and neurosurgeons." --Acta Orthopaedica Belgica
