(Encyclopedia of Differential Diagnosis in Dermatology)
Paul Schneiderman and Marc E. Grossman
ISBN-10: 0415390524
ISBN-13: 978-0415390521

One of the most ambitious texts to be published in dermatology for some years, this is a comprehensive guide to dermatologic conditions, classified by physical findings, and referenced to current literature. There are 284 entries, arranged alphabetically. The art and science of clinical dermatology rest with the ability of the clinician to formulate an appropriate differential diagnosis by defining and synthesizing the physical findings; this book serves as a guide in that quest, and will be both educational and stimulating to dermatologists at all levels of training and practice.

A visual companion to one of the most ambitious texts to be published in dermatology for some years, this is a comprehensive guide to 284 dermatologic conditions by means of up to 4000 color photographs. These photographs are used as examples of each of the multiple diagnostic possibilities, with an emphasis on unusual presentations of common clinical entities, as well as common presentations of rare and unusual disorders. Readers who use this Atlas in conjunction with the separate compendium of diagnostic categorization will be able to fine-tune their visual diagnostic skills at the same time as their organizational thought processes in an instructive and enjoyable intellectual and clinical exercise. This unique high-quality road map through clinical dermatology should form part of the core library of every practicing dermatologist.

Dermatoscopy in Clinical Practice: Beyond Pigmented Lesions, 1st ed. 2010




Dermatoscopy in Clinical Practice: Beyond Pigmented Lesions
(Series in Dermatological Treatment)
Giuseppe Micali and Francesco Lacarrubba
ISBN-10: 0415468736
ISBN-13: 978-0415468732
Informa Healthcare





Dermoscopy has increasingly been taken up in general dermatology practice in the USA as a non-invasive technique for the differential diagnosis of pigmented skin lesions. Videodermatoscopy – dermoscopy using a digital system - allows a higher-magnified observation of the skin surface and has also been used for other investigations, such as monitoring the progress of therapy for dermatologic conditions, with some success. This book aims to advance knowledge of these additional uses of videodermatoscopy beyond the usual indication for pigmented lesions of the skin.

Aesthetic Rejuvenation Challenges and Solutions: A World Perspective, 2010





Aesthetic Rejuvenation Challenges and Solutions, 2010
A World Perspective
(Series in Cosmetic and Laser Therapy)
Paul J Carniol and GARY D MONHEIT
ISBN-10: 0415475600
ISBN-13: 978-0415475600
Informa Healthcare




Every practitioner of aesthetic medicine and surgery will already have a series of textbooks instructing on how to treat the standard patient. Unfortunately, every practitioner will also have patients who do not conform to the average – who are of a different age, or sex, or ethnicity, or medical history, or who have special social requirements. This book looks at those complicated areas that tend to be ignored in the more standard textbooks, but are of intense interest to those practitioners who are confronted by a patient not conforming to the standard treatment; it pools the expertise of top aesthetic practitioners to help point out the areas of special challenge that arise in clinical practice and how to set about tackling and solving them.

Acne Scar; Classification and Treatment, 2010




Acne Scars: Classification and Treatment
(Series in Dermatological Treatment)
Antonella Tosti, Maria De Padova, Kenneth Beer
ISBN-10: 1841846872
ISBN-13: 978-1841846873
Informa Healthcare





The visible scarring left permanently on the skin after acne itself subsides often causes considerable distress for the patients concerned. The traditional treatment by dermabrasion has now been supplemented and supplanted by a number of innovative therapies, often developed as tools in cosmetic dermatology, and this text - the first monograph devoted to the topic - will be welcomed by both general and cosmetic dermatologists as a useful guide through the complexities of treatment.

Thyroid Disorders with Cutaneous Manifestations, 1st ed. 2008





Thyroid Disorders with Cutaneous Manifestations, 2008
Warren R. Heymann
ISBN-10: 184800186X
ISBN-13: 978-1848001862
Springer




The spectrum of the cutaneous manifestations of thyroid disease includes cutaneous metastases from thyroid malignancies and thryoglossal duct cysts, nonspecific alterations of the skin, hair, and nails reflecting both the hyperthyroid and hypothyroid states, and the multiple associations of thyroid disease with other cutaneous and systemic diseases. Internists, family practitioners, pediatricians, geriatricians, and dermatologists address these issues on a daily basis: When is it appropriate to evaluate a patient for thyroid disease? How should the patients be evaluated? How often should testing be performed? Should other family members be screened for thyroid disease? The purpose of The Thyroid in Dermatology is to raise awareness of the vast spectrum of thyroid-skin interactions, and to provide a framework for the appropriate diagnosis and management of these diseases.[Medical e-Library, free download]

Rook’s Textbook of Dermatology (4 vol. set), 7th ed. 2004




Rook’s Textbook of Dermatology, 7th ed. 2004
D. A. Burns, S. M. Breathnach, Neil Cox, Christopher E. Griffiths
ISBN-10: 0632064293
ISBN-13: 978-0632064298
Wiley-Blackwell



Rook's Textbook covers all aspects of skin disease from basic science through pathology and epidemiology to clinical practice. It has always been particularly highly regarded for its unparalelled coverage of diagnosis. Two new Editors, Dr Cox and Professor Griffiths, have been brought in to the team from complimentary backgrounds in clinical practice and research. The seventh edition contains three completely new chapters on immunodeficiency, AIDS and skin ageing. Many chapters have been completely rewritten from scratch, for example the chapter on molecular biology was thought to be too advanced for the general reader and will be made more introductory. Whilst the book's traditional emphasis on diagnosis has been preserved, there has been an increased coverage of treatment in each of the disease chapters in response to minor criticisms that previous editions have been comparatively weak in this area.

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, 4th ed. 2003




Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, 4th ed. 2003
Robert G. Lahita
ISBN-10: 0124339018
ISBN-13: 978-0124339019
Academic Press




This book successfully links basic science with clinical medicine, providing a framework within which to understand this complex disease. As Lahita states in the introduction, 'The history of discovery is now in the log phase of growth.' The third edition of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus conveys the excitement and the breadth of this dynamic field. This volume will be an excellent resource for basic and clinical scientists, as well as for the students of imunology and rheumatology. The chapters are well-referenced and can be read independently- as befits a reference book.

Cutaneous Manifestations of Endocrine Diseases, 2009
Walter K. H. Krause
ISBN-10: 3642100023
ISBN-13: 978-3642100024
Springer Berlin Heidelberg



Skin lesions are often the first sign for an endocrine disease. Their description is thus of relevance for early diagnosis and treatment of endocrine disease for specialists in endocrinology as well as in dermatology. Lavishly illustrated, this book describes the clinical and histological features of skin lesions observed in endocrine diseases. All features are reader-friendly structured and written in the language of dermatologists in order to enable a simple association between the features observed and the endocrine etiology.
