Pediatric Nephrology 6/e

Through 5 editions, Pediatric Nephrology has become the standard reference text for students, trainees, practicing
physicians (Pediatricians, Nephrologists, Internists, and Urologists), sub-specialists, and allied health professionals
seeking information about Children’s Kidney Diseases. It is global in perspective and reflects the international group
of editors, who are well-recognized world’s experts in Pediatric Nephrology. In a single text, the development of
kidney structure and function is followed by detailed and comprehensive chapters on all childhood kidney diseases.
These chapters, grouped by major disease categories, utilize molecular and cellular pathophysiology of disease to
provide unique and comprehensive information of the current state of the art on all known childhood kidney diseases.
Each chapter makes new genetic information easily understandable for the practitioner, and uses many algorithms and
diagrams to describe appropriate clinical evaluation of symptoms, differential diagnosis, specific diagnostics, and
currently available therapies. The text is not only found in University/Hospital libraries, but on the shelves of sub-
specialists, pediatricians, internists, urologists, and extensively in the clinics where it is used during clinical
encounters with childhood kidney disease.
