Inhaltsangabe

This book is for postgraduate fellows, internists, and students interested in rheu- tology. It contains real cases and is designed to stimulate thought and further reading in this rapidly evolving specialty. I have included a series of common and uncommon cases that I have seen over the past decade in a busy consultative practice and have inserted up-to-date ref- ences and questions you may be asked on ward rounds or in clinic. My hope is that it will be a useful adjunct for physicians preparing for examinations or entering the field and will stimulate further interest. I would like to acknowledge my mentors Pierre Bouloux, MD, Tom Cooney, MD and thank Atul Deodhar, MD for his careful review of the manuscript. This book is dedicated to my parents and wife Batool who have made many sacrifices for which I remain eternally grateful.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This book illustrates, in a succinct question and answer format, a variety of different scenarios of rheumatic disease. In its discussion of common and uncommon cases, the book presents the seasoned experiences of a leading rheumatologist. These questions and cases are easily translated into everyday practice and might well be presented during ward rounds, in clinic, or during boards. The book is an excellent resource for postgraduate fellows, internists and students who are eager to learn more about rheumatology, test their fund of knowledge, or prepare for board examinations.
