The mission of the book is to help readers understand the content and maintain the knowledge, rather than merely finding answers for complicated questions. It provides more than 800 MCQs in a convenient format that is suitable for self-study. Answers and definitions appear immediately below the questions to facilitate information retention. The chapters provide comprehensive coverage of the core concepts in neurosurgical oncology. They provide a step-by-step, thorough explanations of each disease from the definition, associated anatomy, pathology, clinical features, radiology to surgical decision-making, and surgical tricks, providing a comprehensive and concise overview. This book is an adjunct to the existing texts and does not intend to be the primary source of information; it rather aims to help readers identify their relevant strengths and weaknesses in the area. The book is an important asset for residents across neurosurgical disciplines as it includes much of the neuro-oncology knowledge that neurosurgical residents need to prepare for their certification tests. It is also useful for those seeking ways to solidify their knowledge or maintain their current certification. 0aNervous systemxSurgery. 0aOncology. 0aChildrenxSurgery.14aNeurosurgery.24aOncology.24aPediatric Surgery.1 aHoz, Samer S.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aAtallah, Oday.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aMa, Li.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aAljuboori,  Zaid.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aSharma, Mayur.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aIsmail, Mustafa.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aDelawan, Maliya.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303153641008iPrinted edition:z978303153643440uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-53642-7
