Reconstruction of the Thumb and Finger is a unique resource that follows a Socratic approach to teaching in a world consumed by computers.

Technologische Selbstoptimierung ist gegenwärtig in aller Munde. Sie umfasst die Erforschung neuer Möglichkeiten im Hinblick auf Schönheitsoperationen, funktionale Implantologie, Gehirndoping oder die Verlängerung der Lebensspanne. Gegenüber vielen dieser technischen Mittel, die oft nicht legal verfügbar sind, bestehen erhebliche gesellschaftliche Vorbehalte. Jan-Hendrik Heinrichs und Markus Rüther plädieren bei ihrer ethischen Einschätzung für eine Differenzierung der Perspektive: Die Vorbehalte sind nämlich ihrer Meinung nach nicht geeignet, gesellschaftliche Ächtung oder gar verbindliche Verbote für alle zu begründen. Vielmehr habe die Freiheit zur Selbstgestaltung Vorrang, was jedoch nicht heißt, dass es für manche Bereiche nicht auch klare Regeln geben muss. Weil Selbstgestaltung aber nur frei sein kann, wenn sie informiert ist, argumentieren die Autoren für Regelungen, die von weitgehenden Informationspflichten statt von Verboten bestimmt sind. Aus einer individuellen Sichtheraus lassen sich zudem eine Reihe von moralischen Empfehlungen formulieren, die zwar nicht eingefordert werden können, aber einen ethischen Kompass bilden, um sich im Dickicht der ethischen Debatte an guten Gründen zu orientieren.
In diesem Buch wird die Pharmakologie von Ketamin/Ketanest anhand einer sehr ausfuhrlichen Literaturrecherche dargestellt. Die Entwicklung von Ketamin als Monoanasthetikum zum Kombinationsanasthetikum, vor allem in Verbindung mit Benzodiazepinen, wurde notwendig, um seine unerwunschten Nebenwirkungen auf das kardiovaskulare System sowie seine psychotomimetischen Nebenwirkungen zu eliminieren. Die Durchsicht der fast unubersehbaren Literatur zeigt, da sich vor allem die Kombinationen mit den modernen Benzodiazepinen Flunitrazepam und Midazolam bewahrt haben. Die Akzeptanz der Ataranalgesie ist vergleichbar mit der herkommlicher Anasthesieverfahren. In der Notfallmedizin bestatigt sich Ketamin haufig als Analgetikum der Wahl. Die absolute Kontraindikation Schadel-Hirn-Trauma wird in der Podiumsdiskussion relativiert. Die Eignung der Benzodiazepin-Ketamin-Kombination zur Analgosedierung in der Intensivmedizin wird am Beispiel von Schwerstverbrannten dargestellt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, da Ketamin fast 3 Jahrzehnte nach seiner Einfuhrung in die Klinik noch immer unverzichtbarer Bestandteil in den aufgefuhrten Anwendungsgebieten ist.
One of the most outstanding achievements in contemporary surgery has been the development ofmicrosurgery and its c1inical application. Early in 1960s, the Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital began to research and practise the replant ation of severed limbs and has hence been acc1aimed as the cradle of replant ation surgery in China. Succeeding Dr. Chen Zhong-wei, Dr. Yu Zhong-jia has led the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery to continue ploughing and weeding diligently in the field of microsurgery of the extremities and has made, in both reconstructive and reparative microsurgery, great advances that have attracted world attention. I used to be the scientific advisor of this hospital and have therefore followed c1ose1y what has been achieved there. A well-known orthopaedist and microsurgeon, Dr. Yu Zhong-jia is adept in using the present advanced techniques to solve difficult problems which re mained unsettled in spite of predecessors' repeated earlier attempts, and his own scientific research is always directed by the imperative needs of his patients. The results of his research thus not only attain a high technical standard, but are also rich in practical value. Dr. Yu was the the first surgeon in the world to trans plan ted autogenous toes to the amputated forearm stump, with a metallic artificial metacarpus as the connection, reconstructing a new hand with sensibil ity and movability afterwards eulogized by foreign friends as the "China Hand".
La chirurgia estetica è un tema ormai entrato saldamente nell'immaginario collettivo ed è spesso oggetto di dibattiti e controversie. È un argomento che mescola medicina e costume, scienza e "civiltà dell'immagine", cura di sé e narcisismo. Questo volume, scritto a quattro mani da un accademico e da una giornalista di costume, è una sorta di guida pratica ma autorevole per coloro che intendono avvicinarsi all'universo della chirurgia estetica. Ogni età della vita viene considerata dal punto di vista degli interventi possibili e delle problematiche che si affacciano a ogni nuova fase: l'acne, le cicatrici, la cellulite, il seno post-parto. Che cosa accade fra i venti e i trent'anni? E quando iniziano gli "anta"? Domanda e risposta su quando e come intervenire, perché prediligere un intervento a un altro, e quando invece la chirurgia risulta inutile. E ancora: che panorama si presenta agli uomini che intendono servirsi di ritocchi e lifting? Passando in rassegna le principali tecniche e i metodi non invasivi, i volume indica al lettore come affrontare e sfruttare le opportunità offerte da questo campo chirurgico senza correre rischi.
