Morbus Cushing – Diagnostik und Therapie mit Fallbeispielen (UNI-MED Science) (German Edition), 2nd Edition
By Stephan Petersenn
Der Morbus Cushing stellt als Erkrankung eine diagnostische und therapeutische Herausforderung dar. Er wird aufgrund seiner Seltenheit meist erst spät erkannt, stellt unbehandelt eine vitale Gefährdung dar und die Ursachen und Verläufe eines Hyperkortisolismus sind vielgestaltig.Dieses Buch – erfreulicherweise in einer aktualisierten 2. Auflage – gibt einen Überblick über die Klinik, Diagnostik und Therapie des Morbus Cushing. Es vermittelt u.a. die aktuellen Möglichkeiten zum Screening auf einen Kortisolexzess sowie neue Entwicklungen bei der Behandlung sowohl des zugrundeliegenden Hypophysentumors, des Hyperkortisolismus als auch der Begleiterkrankungen. Ergänzt wird es durch die Darstellung anschaulicher Kasuistiken.
