Pleural diseases are very common and of increasing prevalence. This brand new title in the ABC series covers a wide range of conditions including pneumothorax, pleural effusions, pleural infections, chylothorax and mesothelioma.
Pleural diseases are frequently managed in primary care, but specialist knowledge is required to understand the full variety of presentations and available treatments in this rapidly developing field. ABC of Pleural Diseases is a brand new addition to the ABC Series which takes a unique approach to these conditions by dealing with them as a related group as well as in their individual manifestations.
The book provides a unique and comprehensive overview of pleural disease, beginning with the anatomy and physiology of the pleura. It then covers a wide range of specific conditions in greater detail, including pneumothorax, pleural effusions, pleural infections, and also chapters on radiology and pathology. Full coverage is given of mesothelioma, the most common pleural cancer.
Written by a team of specialists, this reference guide to pleural diseases is a practical guide for General Practitioners, Junior Doctors, Specialist Nurses, Radiologists, and all Healthcare Professionals working within chest medicine.
