en Limba Engleză Mixed media product – 17 apr 2007
The book deals with dermatologic diseases involving serious cutaneous malignancies. The sections are organized alphabetically and color-coded. Approximately 40 disease states are discussed with accompanying full-color clinical and microscopic photography. Each entity contains a single clinical photograph accompanied by three photomicrographs detailing the diagnostic features of each case. Subsections detailing disease prognosis are presented in a bullet-style. The pedagogical value of this book is its unique presentation of a variety of dermatologic entities capable of leading to serious medical consequences including death.

Descriere

Almost exactly ten years ago, two young physicians joined me at the University of Oklahoma for the study of dermatopathology: Stephen C. Somach, a brilliant dermatologist-scholar from Cleveland, who was also a highly accomplished cellist, and Michael B. Morgan, an effervescent, newly minted pathologist from Florida, who was brimming with energy, curiosity, and zeal and was also spo- ing water skiis and a red Porsche! Bruce R. Smoller, whose impressive erudition is universally acknowledged, I met during a Residency Review committee visit to Stanford some ?fteen years ago. Each of these men has made original cont- butions to the dermatopathology literature as well as to patient care in the cli- cal setting. Their publications have broadened our understanding of the biologic behavior of pigmented lesions, cutaneous lymphomas, vascular lesions, and soft tissue tumors. It is indeed a pleasure to welcome their volume, Deadly Der- tologic Diseases, a unique and stimulating outcome of their enthusiastic collaboration. Deadly Dermatologic Diseases discusses a wide variety of entities–neoplastic, vascular, infectious, metabolic–each of which may eventuate in death of the patient. In addition, numerous tumors and dermatoses frequently associated with internal malignancies are reviewed. High-quality histologic photomic- graphs and clinical pictures accompany many of the discussions. A unique initial summary page facilitates the reading of each presentation. Recent relevant genetic and biochemical ? ndings in every chapter were particularly helpful to this reader.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
"Three dermapathologists have gathered available information on skin diseases that could have fatal outcomes. … Each chapter begins with a box highlighting key information. This is followed by text and references. … the current authors are to be commended for creating a book that could be a useful source for the physician-in-training and for clinicians dealing with seriously ill or potentially seriously ill patients." (Lawrence Charles Parish, Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 298 (10), 2007)
"This book offers a review of a wide variety of dermatologic disorders that can lead to death of the patient. Each disease entity begins with a summary table for quick reference. … It is written for dermatologists, pathologists, and general practitioners, as well as dermatology and pathology residents and appears to be appropriate for that audience. … This book will prove valuable for residents just learning dermatology as well for busy clinicians needing a quick reminder of disease characteristics or associations." (Renata H. Mullen, Doody's Review Service, November, 2007)
