A full-color case-based review of the essentials of pathophysiology covering all major organs and systems

More than 130 case studies with Q&A

A Doody’s Core Title for 2020!

The goal of this trusted text is to introduce you to clinical medicine by reviewing the pathophysiologic basis of 132 diseases (and associated signs and symptoms) commonly encountered in medical practice. The authors, all experts in their respective fields, have provided a concise review of relevant normal structure and function of each body system, followed by a description of the pathophysiologic mechanisms that underlie several common diseases related to that system. The accessible presentation features high-quality full-color illustrations, and numerous tables and diagrams.

Each chapter of Pathophysiology of Disease concludes with a collection of case studies and questions designed to test your understanding of the pathophysiology of each clinical entity discussed. These case studies allow you to apply your knowledge to specific clinical situations. Detailed answers to each case study question are provided at the end of the book.

This unique interweaving of physiological and pathological concepts will put you on the path toward thinking about signs and symptoms in terms of their pathophysiologic basis, giving you an understanding of the "why" behind illness and treatment.

HERE ARE SOME OF THE MANY UPDATES AND ADDITIONS:
•Twelve additional case studies, bringing the total to 132, one for each of the clinical entities discussed in the book’s 24 chapters
•More than 2/3 of the chapters are enhanced and refreshed by the input of new contributors
•Totally revised chapter on neoplasia
•New chapter sections on urticaria, spinocerebellar ataxia, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and spondyloarthropathies
•New tables summarizing adverse prognostic signs in acute pancreatitis, genetic syndromes associated with pancreatic cancer, and causes of end-stage renal disease
•New diagnosis and etiologic classification of diabetes mellitus, and review of mechanisms of newest pharmacologic agents for its treatment
•Updates on fine-needle aspiration biopsy of thyroid nodules, and thyroid disorders in pregnancy
•Updated references throughout the book

3.0 out of 5 stars Gut aber unvollständig
Reviewed in Germany on June 19, 2019
Verified Purchase
Die Inhalte des Buches die es hat, sind gut. Nur leider liegt dabei auch das Problem. Die, die es hat.
Während der physiologische Teil als Einführung nahezu 2/3 des gesamten Kapitels einnimmt, ist der pathologische Teil teilweise sehr kurz geraten. Der gesamte Abschnitt über Arrhythmien im Herzen erstreckt sich beispielsweise über eine Seite - Tachykardie und Bradykardie.
Abgesehen davon ist die Inhaltsangabe und Gliederung eine Katastrophe. Ganz zu Beginn des Buches ist eine Seite auf der die groben Themen (z.B. "renal diseases") stehen, mehr nicht. Sucht man also nach einem bestimmten Unterpunkt (z.B. nephrotisches Syndrom) muss man mühsam alle Seiten durchblättern und mit viel Glück findet man einen kleinen Absatz über das gesuchte Thema.

Auf der anderen Seite sind die Skizzen und Tabellen wirklich gut. Sie sind klar und auf den Punkt gebracht dargestellt. Wenn man Pathophysiologie also schon beherrscht und nur ein Buch zur (minimalen) Wiederholung sucht, ist es ausgezeichnet

Fazit
Pro:
- schönes Papier
- schöne und ausdrucksstarke farbige Bilder
- ausgezeichnete Graphen und Tabellen

Contra:
- Kapitel zu kurz
- Der physiologische Teil des Kapitels ist teilweise länger als der pathophysiologische Teil
- Inhaltsangabe unvollständig
- kein online Zugang
