Description
An indispensable reference for pulmonologists with an interest in pleural disease, and a useful reference for other pulmonary physicians and trainees in respiratory medicine.
Textbook of Pleural Diseases is a comprehensive reference that covers both the basic and clinical science on pleural diseases.

The clinical sections are written in a uniform style and include the definition, epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, investigations, treatments, and possible complications for various pleural diseases. Other clinical chapters discuss both familiar and less common disease aspects.
Five new chapters have been added covering new technologies in the clinical management of pleural diseases, procedural complications and safety measures, and the setting up of a pleural practice. The remaining chapters have been substantially updated. About a third of the 50 chapters in this edition are written by new
