In the unique vignette format of the Pearls Series, this book presents a variety of problems that challenge emergency physicians and toxicologists in everyday practice. For each patient, the author presents the case scenario, physical findings, lab data, and a clinical photo, and the reader is challenged to formulate a diagnosis and a treatment strategy. The next page reveals the diagnosis, discusses the condition, and leaves the reader with several "pearls of wisdom" distilled from the case.

Offers actual case studies in toxicology that challenge readers to formulate their own diagnoses.
Reveals the actual diagnosis for each case with discussions of the relevant disorders.
Distills 3-4 clinical pearls for each case―helping readers to avoid complications and achieve optimal outcomes
and pitfalls.
Uses illustrations to emphasize important points.
