Yasargil Microneurosurgery Study Guide is designed for effective learning and study of the neurosurgical principles contained in seminal microneurosurgery textbooks. From normal microsurgical anatomy to aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations, and CNS tumor microsurgery, this study guide provides a question-and-answer format to knowledge of the background, anatomy, and techniques of microneurosurgery. This work is a practical guide to the application of microneurosurgery to a variety of brain conditions, including intracranial aneurysms, extrinsic and intrinsic tumors, while providing guidance on instrumentation and equipment, neuroanesthesia, complications, and more. This practical book is ideal for neurosurgeons, neurologists, neuroanatomists, and other technical experts with a clinical interest in brain microsurgery.

Dr. Kranzler earned his medical degree from Northwestern University Medical School where he also completed the neurosurgery residence program. He also holds a JD and LLM in Health Law from Loyola University. Since 1974 he has been coordinator of the Chicago Review Course in Neurological Surgery. Author of two books in Neurosurgery, and a deep interest in neurosurgical education, he was clinical professor of surgery (neurosurgery) at the University of Chicago. His clinical interests involve trauma, minimally invasive spine surgery, trigeminal neuralgia, pituitary tumors and pediatric neurosurgery. Dr. Panteli earned her medical degree in the Faculty of Medicine from University Gr. T Popa in Romania. She subsequently received her neurosurgical training and board certification from the Red Cross Hospital in Athens in 2012.
In June 2014, after completing the 5th Istanbul Microneurosurgery Course, she was accepted as a research fellow in the Neurosurgery Department of Yeditepe University Hospital, Istanbul, under the supervision of Professor M. Gazi Yaargil and Professor Uur Türe. She is currently a Neuroscience PhD candidate, and, since December 2014, has been enjoying the challenges of teaching neuroanatomy, cardiovascular and respiratory system anatomy to the undergraduate medical students in Yeditepe University, in Istanbul, Turkey.
