3.0 out of 5 stars Clinical viganettes of Pediatrics, April 4, 2000

This review is from: Underground Clinical Vignettes: Pediatrics, Classic Clinical Cases for USMLE Step 2 and Clerkship Review (Paperback)

This book gives you 56 major clinical cases of Pediatrics. It presents cases beginning from its history, physical, images and "associated diseases". The big features of this series are that the cases are presented within 1-3 pages, with the diagnosis at the end of the page. So you can test yourself by hiding the last row. Also the important keywords that are included in the cases are highlighted, so if any of them are not familiar to you, you can check it out. Almost all the cases selected are very important, and it is highly possible that you see them on your exam. But if you have no trouble getting a clinical picture of each diseases (e.g. IMG already practicing pediatrics), this book may be unnecessary.
