Book Description
Clinical Paediatric Endocrinology is established as the leading international work of reference in the field, covering childhood endocrine disorders, their diagnosis and treatment. The boundaries of this branch of paediatrics are wide and difficult to define, but a comprehensive approach is taken here: the book covers the disorders of classic hormones as well as those of growth factors and regulatory peptides and neuroendocrinology.
The definitive international reference book in the field
Completely rewritten with many new contributors
More concise and focused on the clinical aspects
Integrates the basic physiology and science with the clinical disorders
