Disorders of Sex Development by John M Hutson PDF (Perseu) torrent

The rapid advances in medicine over the last 50 years
have totally changed the outlook for children with
disorders of sex development (DSD), but there is still
much to learn. This book crystallizes the combined
experience of a leading dedicated unit over 25 years
in delivering expert medical and surgical care to
children with DSD in a holistic environment. It
documents the most recent advances in the molecular
biology and embryology of sex development, and
describes each disorder in detail. The clinical
presentation and approach to diagnosis are described
both for babies and for children presenting later
in childhood or at adolescence. The chapters on
management highlight all the latest knowledge and
include the shared wisdom of the authors on current
controversies, such as the timing of surgical
treatment. Finally, the authors describe their short,
medium-, and long-term outcomes, which demonstrate
the strengths of holistic team management.
