Imagerie musculosquelettique traumatique

  • 1st Edition
  • May 18, 2020
  • Donna G Blankenbaker + 1 more
  • French
Pour la première fois traduit en langue française, Imagerie musculosquelettique traumatique constitue l’ouvrage de référence pratique du domaine : à l’aide de 3400 clichés, il décline plus de 200 diagnostics, classés par grandes régions anatomiques (épaule, coude, poignet et main, hanche, genou, cheville et pied), puis en fonction de la région par structure (pathologie osseuse, ligamentaire, tendineuse, etc.). Fidèle à la célèbre pédagogie des ouvrages anglo-saxons Amirsys, on retrouve : une présentation des diagnostics en double page avec une structure récurrente ;une information qui va à l’essentiel sous forme de listes à puces ;une richesse et une qualité exceptionnelle de l’iconographie, toujours présentée sous la même forme, ce qui rend les comparaisons aisées ;des points clés en encadrés pour un accès rapide à l’information ;enfin, une maquette conçue pour permettre de trouver rapidement l’information recherchée.L’ouvrage intègre les dernières évolutions techniques (prothèse de hanche par exemple ou encore en médecine du sport). Il propose également, lorsque nécessaire, l’imagerie pré- et postopératoire.

Guest edited by Drs. Jonathan Kay and Sergio Schwartzman, this issue of Rheumatic Disease Clinics will cover Controversies in Rheumatology. This issue is one of four selected each year by our series Consulting Editor, Dr. Michael Weisman of Cedars-Sinai.

Rhumatologie pour le praticien

Lombalgies, arthrose, ostéoporose sont des affections parmi les plus fréquentes, touchant à elles seules une grande majorité de Français. Infections, inflammation, troubles immunitaires, hypersollicitation professionnelle ou sportive, touchent os et articulations, mais aussi tendons, ligaments et muscles. Du simple canal carpien aux atteintes cancéreuses de l’os (myélome et métastases), en passant par la goutte, la polyarthrite rhumatoïde ou la fibromyalgie, le champ de la rhumatologie est vaste. Le vieillissement de la population, l’augmentation vertigineuse de l’obésité, font que ces pathologies rhumatismales sont de plus en plus fréquentes, de plus en plus associées à d’autres pathologies et que leur prise en charge est de plus en plus multidisciplinaire. Comment comprendre ces pathologies, comment en aborder le diagnostic clinique, comment utiliser de façon raisonnée les nombreux examens complémentaires à notre disposition, dont la radiographie, l’échographie et l’IRM ? Comment proposer un traitement adapté, reposant autant que possible sur une médecine fondée sur les preuves et les recommandations ? Comment manier avec sûreté antalgiques, anti-inflammatoires, cortisone, biothérapies et traitements non pharmacologiques ? C’est à toutes ces questions et à quelques autres que se propose de répondre cet ouvrage clair et didactique, illustré de nombreux schémas et d’une riche iconographie, enrichi des toutes dernières recommandations nationales et internationales.

Scleroderma, or systemic sclerosis, is a chronic connective tissue disease generally classified as one of the autoimmune rheumatic diseases. Hardening of the skin is one of the most visible manifestations of the disease. It’s estimated that about 300,000 Americans have scleroderma. About one third of those people have the systemic form of scleroderma. Since scleroderma presents with symptoms similar to other autoimmune diseases, diagnosis is difficult. This issue will cover: The Genetic Basis of SSc: Genetics, Epigenetics, Mechanisms of Pathogenesis – linking fibrosis, vasculopathy and immune dysregulation, The Role of Autoantibodies in Diagnosis and Prognosis/survival; Managing Raynaud’s phenomenon and ischemic ulcers, managing SSc Lung Disease, Monitoring for and Managing Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, and many more!
