A state-of-the-art guide on oral cancer management from distinguished experts!Oral Cancer: Evaluation, Therapy, and Rehabilitation edited by prominent Johns Hopkins clinicians and educators Carole Fakhry, Karen Pitman, Ana Kiess, and David Eisele provides a comprehensive, state-of-the-art review on the diagnosis and management of oral cancer. This unique resource fills a void in the literature by exploring surgical and reconstructive issues specific to each subsite of the oral cavity. Important pre- and post-treatment evaluations by dental, speech language pathology, and the oncologic care team are reviewed.The comprehensive book is divided into 10 sections, each focused on different facets of the patients'trajectory. The text starts with epidemiology of oral cavity cancer and discussion of patient populations at increased risk of oral cavity cancer. The book details pre-cancers, multidisciplinary diagnostic evaluations, treatment, post-treatment, recurrent and metastatic oral cancer, and palliative care, concluding with future directions such as chemoprevention. A full spectrum of oral neoplasms are covered in depth, including different types of squamous cell cancer, primary malignancies of the mandible, and sublingual and minor salivary gland malignancies.Key FeaturesAll oral cavity subsites are approached from both an ablative and reconstructive standpoint, with dedicated chapters focused on specific oral cancer reconstructive techniquesDiscussion of oncologic considerations encompassing radiation and medical oncology including definitive radiation therapy, brachytherapy, adjuvant radiation therapy, and adjuvant chemotherapy/novel therapeuticsClinical pearls cover complications of both surgery and radiation therapy, as well as psychological and dental implications of therapyHigh-quality illustrations, photographs, and videos further elucidate impacted anatomy and techniquesResidents and clinicians in otolaryngology-head and neck surgery, oral and maxillofacial surgery, head and neck reconstructive surgery, medical oncology, and radiation oncology will benefit from reading this excellent resource. Dentists who wish to further their knowledge about oral cancers will also find it an invaluable reference.

Despite the frequency and morbidity of stroke, there is a relative paucity of \u201cstroke experts,\u201d such as vascular neurologists and neurocritical care physicians, to care for these patients. Clinical research in the diagnosis and treatment of stroke has grown exponentially over the past two decades resulting in a great deal of new clinical information for attending physicians to absorb. Grounded in cutting-edge and evidence-based strategies, Ischemic Stroke closes the gap in stroke care by providing a cogent and intuitive guide for all physicians caring for stroke patients. Key topics explored cover all elements of stroke care, including examinations of: emergent evaluation of the suspected stroke patient, clinical signs and symptoms of stroke, mechanisms of ischemic stroke, neuroimaging, cardiac-based evaluation, thrombolytic therapy, endovascular therapy, critical care management, rehabilitation, cardiac arrhythmias, and structural heart disease.","publication_date":"2018-01-01","upload_link":"https:\/\/search.ebscohost.com\/login.aspx?direct=true&site=eds-live&db=nlebk&AN=2490128&authtype=shib&custid=ns346513&group=main&profile=eds","no_of_pages":"","authored_by":"Sheryl Martin-Schild, Hen Hallevi, Andrew Barreto, Sheryl Martin-Schild, Hen Hallevi, Andrew Barreto","header":{"DbId":"nlebk","DbLabel":"eBook Collection (EBSCOhost)","An":"2490128","RelevancyScore":"1097","PubType":"eBook","PubTypeId":"ebook","PreciseRelevancyScore":"1096.64697265625"},"plink":"https:\/\/search.ebscohost.com\/login.aspx?direct=true&site=eds-live&db=nlebk&AN=2490128&authtype=shib&custid=ns346513&group=main&profile=eds","additionalInfo":{"Authored_By":"Carole Fakhry, Karen T.
