Description détaillée : ILLUSTRATIVE CASE STUDIES IN HAEMATOLOGY

Illustrative Case Studies in Haematology is an educational book describing haematological, biochemical and molecular approaches to reach a diagnosis of common and rare blood disorders. The book consists of 44 individual real-life case reports.

Each case includes a brief clinical history, basic laboratory investigations, and initial impressions, leading to one or more possible diagnoses. Then, through more targeted investigation, the authors reach a final diagnosis, which is frequently at the molecular level.

For each case, a brief discussion is included, highlighting critical clinical and/or laboratory features, as well as recent progress in the area. Each individual case illustrates the close connection, in contemporary medicine, between clinical findings, haematological findings, and molecular analysis.
