Clinical Problems in Medicine and Surgery provides a comprehensive selection of important medical and surgical scenarios. The reader is taken through 66 case histories step by step and is asked to interpret a broad range of medical data. Most of the clinical problems are accompanied by illustrations, which include cardiographs, radiographs, clinical and pathological photographs. In addition to detailed questions and answers, a commentary is provided that highlights the important issues of each case, as well as a guide to further topics of study.
