Review
"An aptly titled and concise text. Complete, well-written, and up-to-date, this book is a welcome addition to the library of those interested in pediatric and vascular neurosurgery alike. It has many high quality illustrations that are a useful adjunct to the text. The editors have done an excellent job in compiling chapters on stroke, aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations of the brain and spinal cord, moyamoya disease, vein of Galen malformations, and more. The information on endovascular therapies is particularly useful in light of the recent rapid growth of this field. Overall, this timely and substantive text is a welcome addition to the literature. It is particularly suited to the general adult or pediatric neurosurgery practitioner looking for an introduction to the complexities of neurovascular disease in children. The price of $149.95 seems appropriate."--Journal of Neurosurgery "This book focuses on a rare but highly interesting group of neurosurgical diseasesThere are excellent chapters on the development, actiology and the angiographic findings as well as on various very rare syndromes that are associated with vascular abnormalitiesThe images and article sketches are instructive and of a high qualityThe entire book contains very nice inserts that are highlighted as "PEARLS" indicating the most important issuesexcellent bookit fully meets its objective to highlight a very important part of both paediatric and vascular neurosurgery."--Neurosurgical Review "Aims to provide a balanced view on pediatric neurovascular disease. The book does exactly what it aims to do. This is a superb book..I have not seen a comparable discussion in print."--Doody's Book Reviews
