100 Diagnostic Dilemmas in Clinical Medicine

About this book

One hundred real cases from the hospital and the community, each chosen because the diagnosis was not the obvious one. Every case opens with a short history, examination and first investigations, then walks through the clinician's reasoning to the diagnosis and its management in the short, medium and long term. Titles such as Coffee Ground Vomiting or Hepatitis in a Nightshift Worker read like referrals, so the book works for students and junior doctors practising differential diagnosis one case at a time.
