Uncommon Causes of Stroke


Founding editor: Julien Bogousslavsky
Valmont Clinique, Glion, Switzerland

Most strokes are attributed to atherosclerosis of neck and intracranial arteries, brain embolism from the heart, and penetrating artery disease; these are discussed in detail in many other books. This compendium lls an important niche by providing authoritative discussions on the other, less common causes of stroke, including various forms of angiitis, coagulation disorders, infective, paraneoplastic and metabolic disorders that may be associated with stroke, and a number of rare syndromes such as Eales disease and Fabrys disease. This new edition contains detailed, up-to-date information about the nature, diagnosis, and treatment of those relatively uncommon types of cerebrovascular disease that cause strokes. It is therefore a unique scientic and clinical resource that provides a useful reference to help physicians diagnose and treat stroke patients who do not t well into the usual clinical categories. New chapters include stroke in patients with Lyme disease, scleroderma, Cogans syndrome, Chagas disease, and HIV.

Key Features Fully updated, new edition Emphasizes effective diagnosis and management Comprehensive most complete reference on rare forms of cerebrovascular disease
October 2008 576pp 978-0-521-87437-3 HB c. 110.00

Review of the 1st Edition: There is no doubt in my mind that this is a book worth having. I would recommend buying a personal copy and predict that it will become a standard text to be found in all departmental libraries

This book offers a novel approach to the diagnoses of dizziness, with chapters organized by clinical presentations. Differential diagnoses, history taking, clinical examination and treatment are covered. Common disorders are highlighted, with brief coverage of rarities. A useful CD-ROM shows the clinical examination, positioning and exercises for vestibular rehabilitation.

Organised to assist differential diagnosis Inspires condence in a difcult clinical area CD-ROM shows how to position and examine the patient Hints on what to do in moments of uncertainty
Contents: 1. Essential anatomy and functions of the balance system; 2. Symptoms and examination of the patient with dizziness; 3. A single episode of prolonged vertigo; 4. Recurrent vertigo and dizziness; 5. Positional vertigo; 6. Chronic dizziness and unsteadiness; 7. Dizziness and falls in the elderly; 8. Treatment of the dizzy patient

This is a pragmatic text, steeped with the authors experience. Short of having Adolfo Bronstein universally available to sort out dizzy people, this book is a very acceptable addition to a neurologists armamentarium for dealing with a common clinical problem.
