This book provides a practical approach to managing endocrine problems in children; the coverage of each disorder reflects its clinical importance. Thus there is generous coverage of diabetes and growth problems.
The material is organized so that it can be referred to at a moment's notice. Advice on the principles of management are backed up by overviews of epidemiology, pathophysiology, investigations, and differential diagnoses. Case histories are accompanied by self assessment questions at the end of each chapter, and controversial issues and 'when to refer to a specialist centre' are highlighted for each chapter. The material is well illustrated with photographs and line diagrams.

From the Back Cover
It bridges the gap between the large detailed endocrine references and the short review of endocrinology, providing a practical, concise and up-to-date account of paediatric endocrinology and diabetes in a readable and user friendly format. There is particular emphasis on the practical management of diabetes.
Most chapters conclude with guidelines on which conditions to refer to a specialist centre and an outline of controversial areas. Also included at the end of each chapter are case studies that illustrate diagnostic difficulties which will also help those studying for postgraduate examinations.
The book will also be of interest to the medical student, the nurse working on the paediatric endocrinology ward and the diabetes nurse specialist.
