Strabismus Surgery: Basic and Advanced Strategies is an addition to the field of eye muscle surgery that combines the work of four leading ophthalmologists, representing the teaching from some of the premier pediatric ophthalmology/strabismus fellowship training programs in the United States. The emphasis of this book is not on the nuts and bolts of how to perform strabismus surgery, but rather on what, why, and when to do it. In short, the authors share their experiences and, by extension, that of their many mentors to provide systematic coverage of surgical strategies and important examination techniques for anyone performing strabismus surgeries. Included are strategies for surgical planning for everything from common horizontal muscle recession to the most challenging restrictive, paretic, or oblique muscle reoperation. In a unique roundtable type format, each author was given the opportunity to comment on the work of the other authors, which helps insure a balanced approach with alternative workable strategies when appropriate. The book's value is further enhanced by the contributions and commentary of two of the world's most revered strabismologists of the twentieth century -- Marshall M. Parks and Gunter K. von Noorden. Their contributions include helpful pearls of wisdom and historical vignettes derived from their combined nearly 100 years of experience in this field.

When a child has a health problem, parents want answers. But when a child has cerebral palsy, the answers don't come quickly. A diagnosis of this complex group of chronic conditions affecting movement and coordination is difficult to make and is typically delayed until the child is eighteen months old. Although the condition may be mild or severe, even general predictions about long-term prognosis seldom come before the child's second birthday. Written by a team of experts associated with the Cerebral Palsy Program at the Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children, this authoritative resource provides parents and families with vital information that can help them cope with uncertainty. Thoroughly updated and revised to incorporate the latest medical advances, the second edition is a comprehensive guide to cerebral palsy. The book is organized into three parts. In the first, the authors describe specific patterns of involvement (hemiplegia, diplegia, quadriplegia), explain the medical and psychosocial implications of these conditions, and tell parents how to be effective advocates for their child. In the second part, the authors provide a wealth of practical advice about caregiving from nutrition to mobility. Part three features an extensive alphabetically arranged encyclopedia that defines and describes medical terms and diagnoses, medical and surgical procedures, and orthopedic and other assistive devices. Also included are lists of resources and recommended reading.
