While there are some books that include discussions of individual causes of hypercalcemia, there are none that provide basic guidance on the approach, diagnosis and treatment of hypercalcemia, while also offering an in-depth, detailed, state-of-the-art review of the individual causes by world-renowned experts in the field.
Topics discussed include pathophysiology, differing diagnostic strategies for both the pediatric and adult patient, the various forms and causes of hypercalcemia as well as current treatment regimens and algorithms. Selected chapters are enhanced with illustrative cases, thereby complementing theoretical matter with real-world applications to the practice of medicine, and tables and figures allow the reader to solidify concepts in an easily digestible format.
By integrating an evidence- and guideline-based framework along with an up-to-date, research-based summary of each cause, Hypercalcemia is relevant for expert clinicians and up-and-coming medical students alike.
