It becomes thickened because of oedema or inflammation. In both cases it assumes a smooth surface, so that the thickened skin cannot be folded. In oedema, which usually also spreads to the skin of the penis, it is pale; upon pressure with the finger there remains a slowly-disappearing depression, painfulness being absent. During inflammation the skin is red, hot and painful, and no dimpling remains after pressure. The causes of oedema here are the same as of subcutaneous dropsy in general, while inflammation is most often due to erysipelas, and sometimes also to local diseases, as urethral calculi, contusions, etc.If the skin of the enlarged scrotum be normal, then it means that the increase in size took place on account of the contents, that is, there may be inguinal or scrotal hernia, hydrocele, or enlargement of the testicle itself.Hernia is characterized by being easily reducible when the patient is lying on his back (adherent herniae never occurs in early childhood), while it is quite characteristic that the tumor suddenly slips into the abdominal cavity, being frequently accompanied by a gurgling sound. If the hernial part of the bowel contains air, then percussion of the tumor gives a tympanitic note.Dropsy Of The Testicle—hydrocclc tunica vaginalis—results in an oval tumor with a smooth surface, fluctuating and irreducible into the abdomen; near the external orifice of the inguinal canal one can palpate the upper boundary of the tumor and thus convince himself that it does not extend over the abdomen and th... ...

Product Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.
Medical theory and practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases, their conditions, and treatments. Books on science and technology, agriculture, military technology, natural philosophy, even cookbooks, are all contained here.

Product Description
The European Handbook of Neurological Management, published in collaboration with the European Federation of Neurological Societies (EFNS), is a unique book that brings together peer-reviewed guidelines for the treatment and management of neurological disease. For the first time, neurologists can find advice on management aspects of most neurological disorders that is either evidence-based or, where the evidence is inadequate, the consensus guidance of an international European panel of experts.

The guidelines fall naturally into sections that cover:

Investigation: cerebrospinal fluid analysis, imaging, diagnostic antibodies and skin biopsy Major neurological diseases: stroke, migraine, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, mild traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer’s disease Neuromuscular diseases: motor neuron disease, inflammatory neuropathy, muscular dystrophy and myasthenia gravis Infections: HIV infection and encephalitis Neurological problems: treatment of neuropathic pain, acute relapses of multiple sclerosis and status epilepticus, to name but a few Sleep disorders: Narcolepsy, other sleep disorders and restless legs syndrome Cognitive rehabilitation.The European Handbook of Neurological Management is a book that any neurologist, without regard to national boundaries, will find a useful aid in the day-to-day management of neurological disease. ...

Product Description
Moving beyond the debate over whether and to what degree mild head injury has lasting neuropsychological sequelae, this book is predicated on the assumption that it does cause some problems in some circumstances for some people. It focuses on the practical questions of who is injured, how injuries manifest themselves, and what evaluation and treatment strategies are optimal, for families as well as patients. The distinguished authors bring to their task not only scientific expertise but extensive day-to-day clinical experience. This book will be widely welcomed as the first comprehensive overview of what we have learned from research and clinical experience about these difficult cases.

A view of head injury from the fringe
This book presents a rather slanted view of mild head impact, and presupposes many things as fact that are not supported by the scientific literature.This is particularly borne out by thechapter on scientific issues that firmly refutes the unusual thinking presented in the otherchapters.

A Who's Who in neuropsychology discusses mild TBI.
The reader may be taken by surprise that so many of the chapter authors are "elite" clinical neuropsychologists who have not previously been known to "believe in" mild TBI. They offer a wealth ofinformation, questions and referencs. The text in most chapters isrefreshingly free of test bound restrictions on inference or the usual lamerationales for discarding all mild TBI because the majority are OK. Thebook is a must for working clinicians in neuropsychology, neurology andpsychiatry.

Well done and comprehensive review of many topics on MTBI
This work covers mild TBI as though it were real (which it probably is) in an informative and clinically hepful manner. The 23 chapters cover a very wide range of topics and are consistently excellent (if occasioallyquirky). There is nothing else available at all on this topic, so it iseasy to say it is the best. It is excellent in design and content. ... Read more

Product Description
Evidence-based, peer reviewed, best practice management guidelines for neurologists

Diagnosis is only part of the puzzle. Effective treatment is what your patients really want. The European Federation of Neurological Societies has been publishing management guidelines in the European Journal of Neurology for many years. Developed by a consensus approach, using graded evidence, and then fully peer reviewed, these guidelines provide gold-standard, best-practice guidance to the treatment of neurological disorders. They help bridge the gap between what is done and what should be done for patients with neurological disorders.

The basic guidelines have been expanded with ‘Recommendations’ based on strong evidence and ‘Good Practice Points’ where only weaker evidence is available. The Guidelines in this volume cover:

Investigation

Major neurological diseases

Neuromuscular diseases

Infections

Neurological problems

Sleep disorders

Rehabilitation

The European Handbook of Neurological Management provides a thoroughly rounded and grounded approach to best-practice neurological management using evidence-based principles. ... Read more
