Breast Disease: A Problem-based Approach - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

This is an extremely practical and useful guide to the range of conditions presenting at the average breast clinic. It is unique in that it is organised by symptom to reflect the way patients present and the thinking process of the physician. Each chapter is presented as a case, beginning with a patient profile, highlighting the presenting symptoms and history, with illustrations where relevant. The reader can then either read through the case as a diagnostic and management guide for that set of symptoms or can use the book for self testing purposes. A list in the front of the book gives the case diagnoses, so that the reader can use the book to quickly access the exact condition if preferred. Liberally illustrated to show clinical presentation and imaging findings, the book is invaluable for any junior surgeon or physician requiring a concise and didactic guide to breast disease and its management. Algorithms are used frequently to summarise management options. Features: * Unique problem oriented approach to breast disease * Algorithms summarise management options * Liberal use of clinical and imaging photographs * All commonly encountered cases are presented and management worked through in stepwise detail
