Expert guide to rheumatology

Designed to provide the practicing physician with expert advice presented in a clear, concise, and practical format. Following a discussion of the general clinical approach to rheumatic diseases, the major disorders are described under several groupings: erosive inflammatory arthropathies, collagen vascular diseases, vasculitides, infections, and degenerative diseases. The final sections consider common symptoms and comorbidities and summarize the latest findings in the pharmacological treatment of inflammatory rheumatic conditions. Problem-based approaches to diagnosis and management are emphasized throughout. Tables and figures abstract and illuminate the clearly written text. Case presentations provide instructive examples of every-day patients and situations seen in the office setting.
