Thurlbeck's cornerstone textbook and reference on pulmonary pathology returns in a brand new edition! Comprehensive in its scope and authoritative in its scholarship, Thurlbeck's Pathology of the Lung is a virtual one-volume encyclopedia written by a 'who's who' list of specialists.
The late Dr. Thurlbeck wrote one of the leading texts on the history, diagnosis, and management of chronic airflow obstruction. This new tex t continues his tradition of excellence with a completely updated appr oach to the subject. First, Thurlbeck's Chronic Airflow Obstruction, 2 nd Edition discusses key terminology and classifications to provide a solid foundation for the topic. Then it guides the reader through the morphology, etiology, epidemiology, and pathophysiology of today's mos t common chronic airflow disorders. When appropriate, the latest manag ement options are outlined. And, an entire section describes the effec ts of chronic airflow obstruction on other organ systems.
The last years have witnessed remarkable changes in the incidence & types of lung disease seen by clinicians & pathologists, including the resurgence of tuberculosis & the far-reaching impact of AIDS. At the same time, major advances in understanding the genesis of pathologic processes, especially using new techniques of molecular biology & immunochemistry, have led to important breakthroughs in diagnosis & treatment. High time for the new edition of this unparalleled work!
