Nephrology is an important speciality; patients with acute or chronic kidney failure are encountered in every medical and surgical speciality, as well as in general practice. On most general medical rotations and on most surgical wards there are patients with renal problems. Renal medicine is taught on rotation during degree courses, and Foundation training programmes frequently include attachments in nephrology, urology, and renal transplantation. Nephrology: Clinical Cases Uncovered contains clinical presentations with real-life patient cases and outcomes as seen on the wards and in exams, and leads students through a practical approach to diagnosis and management of kidney disease. Following a question-answer approach, including self-assessment material and a ‘refresher’ section on the basic science of this clinical area, Nephrology: Clinical Cases Uncovered features investigations and the treatment options available for patients with renal disease, including those requiring renal replacement therapy with dialysis and transplantation. Difficult concepts are clarified, using simple diagrams to explain the link between pathology and clinical presentation. Nephrology: Clinical Cases Uncovered is ideal for medical students, junior doctors on the Foundation Programme, GP trainees, and specialist nurses and nurse practitioners. This book is also a useful refresher for nephrology trainees at the beginning of their specialist training programme.

Nephrology is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of kidney diseases and disorders. The kidneys play a vital role in filtering waste products, regulating fluid and electrolyte balance, and producing hormones that control blood pressure and stimulate red blood cell production. Nephrology covers a wide range of diseases and disorders, including glomerular diseases, hypertension-related kidney diseases, and Kidney-related metabolic disorders. Glomerular diseases are a group of conditions that affect the glomeruli, the tiny blood vessels in the kidneys responsible for filtering waste and excess fluids. The treatment of hypertension-related kidney diseases involves controlling blood pressure to prevent or slow the progression of kidney damage. This book brings forth some of the most innovative concepts and elucidates the unexplored aspects of nephrology. It will provide comprehensive knowledge to the readers.
