Practical Algorithms in Pediatric Hematology and Oncology (Practical Algorithms in Pediatrics)
This
is the only comprehensive collection of algorithms which exclusively
addresses hematologic and oncologic problems affecting neonates,
children and adolescents. Examining clinical problems which challenge
the pediatrician, general practitioner and family practice physician,
each algorithm utilizes a concise, step-by-step approach based upon
clues from the history, physical examination and laboratory studies. The
algorithms addressing differential diagnosis clearly distinguish
between the most common etiologies, those that are less frequent, and
finally some that are rare but important to recognize. The 51 topics
include evaluation of anemia, sickle cell anemia, thalassemia, hemolytic
anemia, the bleeding child, thrombocytopenia and other platelet
disorders, hemophilia, leukocyte disorders, leukemias, lymphadenopathy,
splenomegaly, approaches to mass lesions in the mediastinum, abdomen,
pelvis, bones and soft tissues as well as approaches to potential
emergencies such as tumor lysis
