Overview

This book covers pathophysiology of fever, the general approach to the febrile patient, and offers a systematic, in-depth discussion regarding the differential diagnosis of unexplained fever. The authors define an unexplained fever as a fever which lasts a minimum of 14 days and whose etiology is not known. This one-of-a-kind publication highlights the main causes of fever, specifically infectious diseases, cancer, connective tissue diseases, various rare disorders, plus etiologies which are often ignored. Also, laboratory and medical imaging techniques for diagnosing fevers are included. Written in a comprehensive, unrepetitious style, this "must-have" resource includes such aspects as the history of the fever, a review of published cases, the approach to the patient, and an analytical review. This up-to-date volume is an indispensable guide that should be read by physicians, surgeons, internists, microbiologists and other medical professionals.

Editorial Reviews

Booknews
Emphasizing clinical features, this guide underscores ways to reach correct diagnosis at an early stage and is constructed on an organ- system basis. It covers routine problems and the semiologic analysis of fever and its pathophysiology, and provides explanations for possible disorders linked to undiagnosed fever with reference to the cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, hepatobiliary, and pancreatic systems. Various types of fever are discussed, including iatrogenic fevers, those observed in autoimmune disease, and fevers of bacterial, viral, or fungal origin. Acidic paper. Annotation c.
