Synopsis

This well-illustrated practical text provides information on the anatomic pathology of infectious diseases. Designed for the non-expert clinician and trainee, the book is organized by organ system and groups the discussion within each chapter according to the predominant type of host inflammatory response. Each chapter consists of a series of case studies that discuss clinical history, pathologic findings, microbiology, and the differential diagnosis. Host reactions discussed in each chapter include minimal reaction, predominance of polymorphonuclear neutrophils, predominance of mononuclear cells, and granulomas. The appendices contain examples of the typical histologic findings associated with viral, fungal, and parasitic infections. The past decade has seen an increase in the number of exotic and unknown organisms and drug-resistant strains of conventional organisms, and it is essential that clinicians stay abreast of recent developments. Infectious Disease Pathology: Clinical Cases is the best tool for assisting physicians in the recognition of the wide range of infectious diseases contracted by patients.
