Here is the rephrased text:
Up-to-date and evidence-based answers to a wide range of spinal surgical questions that could be asked in the FRCS (Tr & Orth) Viva exam. Using a clear, case-based structure, key points emphasize the core information that will improve the performance of every surgical in training. Sections cover all the key areas of trauma, degenerative spinal pathology, spinal cord injury, spinal deformity, primary bone tumors, metastatic disease, pediatric spinal surgery, basic sciences, and other topics. Suitable for use by trainees at all levels in orthopaedic surgery and neurosurgery, both in the UK and internationally, and those with an interest in spinal surgery.
Trauma:
Trauma is a significant cause of spinal injury, and trainees should be familiar with the various types of trauma, including falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports injuries, and workplace accidents. Key points include the evaluation of trauma patients, the management of spinal fractures, and the use of surgical and non-surgical interventions to stabilize and repair the spine.
Degenerative spinal pathology:
Degenerative spinal pathology is a common condition that affects the spine, and trainees should be familiar with the various types of degenerative conditions, including spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, and spondylolisthesis. Key points include the evaluation of patients with degenerative spinal pathology, the management of symptoms, and the use of surgical and non-surgical interventions to improve function and quality of life.
Spinal cord injury:
Spinal cord injury is a devastating condition that affects the nervous system, and trainees should be familiar with the various types of spinal cord injury, including traumatic spinal cord injury, spinal cord tumor, and spinal cord degeneration. Key points include the evaluation of patients with spinal cord injury, the management of complications, and the use of surgical and non-surgical interventions to improve function and quality of life.
Spinal deformity:
Spinal deformity is a condition that affects the alignment and structure of the spine, and trainees should be familiar with the various types of spinal deformities, including scoliosis, kyphosis, and lordosis. Key points include the evaluation of patients with spinal deformity, the management of symptoms, and the use of surgical and non-surgical interventions to correct deformity and improve function.
Primary bone tumors:
Primary bone tumors are rare tumors that originate in the bones of the spine, and trainees should be familiar with the various types of primary bone tumors, including osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, and Ewing sarcoma. Key points include the evaluation of patients with primary bone tumors, the management of symptoms, and the use of surgical and non-surgical interventions to cure the tumor and improve function.
Metastatic disease:
Metastatic disease is a condition that occurs when cancer cells spread from one organ to another, and trainees should be familiar with the various types of metastatic disease that affect the spine, including breast cancer, lung cancer, and prostate cancer. Key points include the evaluation of patients with metastatic disease, the management of symptoms, and the use of surgical and non-surgical interventions to cure the tumor and improve function.
Paediatric spinal surgery:
Paediatric spinal surgery is a specialized field of surgery that involves the treatment of spinal disorders in children, and trainees should be familiar with the various types of pediatric spinal disorders, including scoliosis, spondylolisthesis, and spinal deformities. Key points include the evaluation of patients with pediatric spinal disorders, the management of complications, and the use of surgical and non-surgical interventions to correct deformity and improve function.
Basic sciences:
Basic sciences are an essential component of spinal surgery, and trainees should be familiar with the various basic sciences that are relevant to spinal surgery, including anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, and pathology. Key points include the understanding of the anatomy of the spine, the understanding of the physiology of the spine, the understanding of the biochemistry of the spine, and the understanding of the pathology of the spine.
Other topics:
Other topics that trainees should be familiar with include spinal instrumentation, spinal fusion, and minimally invasive spinal surgery. Key points include the understanding of the various types of spinal instrumentation, the understanding of the surgical techniques for spinal fusion, and the understanding of the benefits and risks of minimally invasive spinal surgery.
In conclusion, this book provides up-to-date and evidence-based answers to a wide range of spinal surgical questions that could be asked in the FRCS (Tr & Orth) Viva exam. Using a clear, case-based structure, key points emphasize the core information that will improve the performance of every surgical in training. Sections cover all the key areas of trauma, degenerative spinal pathology, spinal cord injury, spinal deformity, primary bone tumors, metastatic disease, pediatric spinal surgery, basic sciences, and other topics. Suitable for use by trainees at all levels in orthopaedic surgery and neurosurgery, both in the UK and internationally, and those with an interest in spinal surgery.
