$207.00
USDThe presentation of kidney diseases can vary widely between children and adults as can age-related differential diagnoses and the consequences of treatment. This comprehensive and practical guide to pediatric nephropathology covers a range of conditions and diseases, including abnormal kidney development, glomerular diseases, vascular diseases and transplant pathology. Special emphasis is placed on integrating mechanisms of disease to pathology and therapeutic options. The book also includes ancillary testing such as genetics, as these are fast becoming the gold standard for a number of paediatric kidney diseases. Over a hundred high-quality colour images are included, fully annotated to display the key features of the diseases discussed. Summaries of key points and knowledge gaps condense vital information for an accessible read by busy clinicians and trainees. An online version of the book with expandable figures can be accessed on Cambridge Core, via the code printed on the inside of the cover.

Reviews & endorsements
‘This book is a helpful volume for those pathologists who encounter pediatric kidney biopsies. It is particularly useful for pathologists who interpret non-neoplastic (so-called medical renal biopsies) from pediatric patients.’ Caroline T. Simon, Doody's Reviews
