Publisher's Synopsis
The first edition of Stroke Syndromes was widely welcomed as a new and authoritative reference in the assessment and diagnosis of stroke. The revised and updated edition remains the definitive guide to patterns and syndromes in stroke, while its companion volume, Uncommon Causes of Stroke, provides in-depth descriptions of many rare and relatively uncommon causes of stroke. Both books emphasise pattern recognition in the location and diagnosis of stroke, offering a comprehensive survey of all types of neurological, neurophysiological and other clinical dysfunction due to stroke. They contain descriptions of clinical problems encountered in stroke patients and their differential diagnosis, and will enable clinicians to differentiate between possible locations on the basis of symptoms and signs. For all neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists and vascular surgeons, these books are a unique scientific and clinical resource.
