Focusing on surgical techniques, this illustrated guide offers detailed insights into operative exposures of spinal nerves, covering anatomy, surgical approaches, and clinical relevance for each nerve. Enhanced by color photos from dissections and procedures, it includes a chapter on technical tips for nerve suturing and transfers. Unique to this book are short instructional videos for each approach, making it a practical resource for residents, fellows, and surgeons needing a quick review. It addresses a critical gap in neurosurgery training programs.

This book addresses the severe knowledge deficit in peripheral nerve amongst neurosurgeons, however this topic represents an integral part of the oral board examination. The book employs a case based approach with the highest-yield scenarios for oral boards, primarily focusing on nerve entrapments, trauma and tumors. Thanks to its question and answer format, the reader is encouraged to think about the cases and questions as if taking the real exam before they check the answers. The work also includes common pitfalls, a section on nerve examinations including video recordings, and a section on important clinical findings that should be diagnosed from the picture. The book not only serves neurosurgeons, but also plastic surgeons, orthopedists, and neurologists.
