Product Description

Product Description

This monograph fills a wide information gap for the clinician and researcher alike. Containing numerous clinical photographs, statistical data, and concise descriptions of the initial mucocutaneous symptoms, it will help the clinician to understand and identify the disease. Other manifestations of BD in such systems as the cardiac, vascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, to name a few, are also described. In addition, the book surveys the drugs and other therapeutic modalities known to have beneficial effects. Lastly, the book's synopsis of the pathogenic and immunologic features of the disease will be useful to scientists interested in the research aspects of BD.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you have Behcet's Disease, take this book to your doctor!, Mar 24 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Behcet's Disease: A Guide to its Clinical Understanding. Textbook and Atlas (Hardcover)
This book is aimed at physicians treating people with Behcet's Disease, a rare autoimmune vasculitis. I think its best features are the many pages of close-up color photos of what Behcet's Disease can do to your body and skin. Take this book to your doctor(s) if a diagnosis of Behcet's Disease is being considered! It's expensive, but you simply can't get this type of resource elsewhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pictures worth a thousand words, May 5 2005
By Joanne Zeis "Behcet's author/researcher" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Behcet's Disease: A Guide to its Clinical Understanding. Textbook and Atlas (Hardcover)
This book has the best collection of Behcet's-related pictures (skin lesions, etc) that you'll find in one place. If you've wondered what a pathergy reaction looks like, for example, or erythema nodosum, this book is an excellent resource. Warning -- if you're a BD patient AND a parent (and you can afford this book in the first place), it's not something to leave lying around the house for your kids to find: some pictures are horrific and might even give *adults* nightmares. If you're a doctor, this book will give you a basic overview of Behcet's -- but there's more detailed info on clinical research and outcomes in the "Contemporary Synopsis on Behcet's" (for info up to 1989) and the "Essential Guide to Behcet's" (for info up till 2002).
