About this book
Nearly all patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have at least one significant dermatologic manifestation. This all-inclusive reference covers the wide array of cutaneous manifestations attributable to CKD, kidney transplantation and the pharmacological aspects of the disease process. Each chapter provides pathobiology, extensive clinical discussions, full-color images and in-depth treatment options. Dermatological Manifestations of Kidney Disease helps the practitioner, nephrologist, resident and student recognize, appropriately evaluate and treat these conditions more effectively.
