520 _aAntiphospholipid Syndrome Handbook presents the major clinical features of antiphospholid syndrome, or Hughes’ Syndrome, discussing diagnosis, treatment and management of the illness, in a handy short practical book. Bringing together the various areas of specialization that may encounter antiphospholipid syndrome, a section on clinical features focuses on various organs in turn, explaining how antiphospholipid syndrome may be manifested in the organ in question. Furthermore, guidance on antiphospholipid syndrome in pregnancy and pediatric antiphospholipid syndrome is included. This reader-friendly, quick pocket-reference is a useful guide to clinicians from general and internal medicine disciplines, and in particular to specialists in rheumatology, hematology, cardiovascular medicine, neurology, nephrology, dermatology, chest medicine and obstetrics.
