Description
In recent years there have been huge advances in the understanding of the genetic and molecular basis of the fibrocystic diseases.
This volume provides a thorough review of fibrocyctic diseases that affect the liver.
It contains in-depth discussions of the genetics, molecular biology, pathogenesis, histology, clinical presentations, complications of, treatment, and prognosis of the conditions affecting children and adults, and hence will be the gold-standard reference for these conditions.
In addition, the histological features that distinguish these conditions from other potentially fibrosing hepatopathies are illustrated.
Conditions with syndromic features involving the kidney or other organ systems are also reviewed.
Thorough review of the clinical phenotypes, their presentations, treatment, potential complications of, and prognosis is discussed. Fibrocystic Diseases of the Liver will be an invaluable resource for hepatologists, gastroenterologists, nephrologists, and hepatic surgeons who care for children and adults with liver disease, as well as basic scientists in molecular genetics, hepatobiliary pathophysiology, hepatology and nephrology.
