Seven Bypasses: Tenets and Techniques for Revascularization 

Introducing ‘Seven Bypasses: Tenets and Techniques for Revascularization’ by Michael Lawton

Are you a neurosurgeon looking to expand your knowledge and techniques in the field of vascular neurosurgery? Look no further than ‘Seven Bypasses: Tenets and Techniques for Revascularization’ by Michael Lawton. This book is the third in a trilogy of technical nuance and strategy, providing unparalleled firsthand insights and guidance on complex pathologies in vascular neurosurgery.

In ‘Seven Bypasses’, Lawton explores the fundamentals of microsurgical anastomosis and the craft of bypass surgery in depth, with clinical pearls in every chapter. His eloquent writing style reveals the art of cerebral revascularization in exquisite, metaphorical detail. He compares a surgeon performing bypass surgery to an architect envisioning and building a beautiful structure, with a bypass designed to fit a patient’s unique anatomy.

This book includes step-by-step guidance on the seven bypasses: EC-IC bypass, EC-IC interpositional bypass, arterial reimplantation, in-situ bypass, reanastomosis, IC-IC interpositional bypass, and combination bypass. Strategies and algorithms for aneurysms are organized by specific anatomical sites, including the MCA and Sylvian cistern, ACA and interhemispheric cistern, basilar artery and the basal cisterns, and PICA and the cisterna magna.

The book’s ten tenets delineate nuances of bypass, including dexterity, preparing donors and recipients, establishing a working zone, temporary arterial occlusion, arteriotomy, suturing technique, tissue handling, knot tying, patency, and aneurysm occlusion. Additionally, ‘Seven Bypasses’ includes over 1,500 radiographs, operative photographs, and exquisite illustrations to elucidate anatomy, surgical principles, and clinical cases.
