Neurological Disorders due to Systemic Disease

Steven L. Lewis,

About this book

How do you identify which neurological syndromes occur due to systemic disease?

Neurological problems commonly occur in the context of underlying systemic disease, and may even be the presenting symptom of a medical condition that has not yet been diagnosed. Consequently neurologists need to be aware when a neurological presentation might indicate an underlying systemic disorder.

Neurologic Disorders due to Systemic Disease provides the tools you need to make these connections. The unique Neurologic presentations-based approach relates to the common clinical situations you encounter, including:

Headache
Stroke
Movement disorders
Neuromuscular disorders
Encephalopathies, Seizures, Myelopathies, Neuro-Ophthalmologic and Neuro-otologic disorders, Sleep disorders, and others

Major categories of systemic illness are explored for each presentation to guide you towards a likely cause. These include:

Endocrine, electrolyte, and metabolic disorders
Systemic autoimmune disorders
Organ dysfunction and failure, and critical medical illness
Systemic cancer and paraneoplastic disorders
Systemic infectious disease
Complications due to drugs and alcohol
Vitamin and mineral deficiencies

Written by a leading cast of experts, with a practical approach including 'things to remember' for each presentation, Neurologic Disorders due to Systemic Disease should be on every neurologist's desk.
