Book Description

January 11, 2005
Bone disease, particularly osteoporosis, has emerged as a common and serious complication of solid organ transplantation. In recent years there have been real advances in our understanding of the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of bone loss, however treatment studies have been relatively sparse and successful strategies to reduce skeletal morbidity after transplantation remain to be clearly established. This book provides a unique resource for the many health professionals involved with transplantation of bone disease, both in terms of its scientific background and the management of the disease in clinical practice.

Contents:
-Basic Transplantation and Bone Biology
-Pathogenesis of Transplantation Related Bone Disease
-Clinical Features of Transplantation Bone Disease
-Management
