Apart from diabetes mellitus, endocrine diseases requiring surgical treatment are relatively uncommon. However, when they do occur, they frequently present major clinical anaesthestic problems that require extensive knowledge of the pathophysiology of the condition, and considerable anaesthetic expertise. This book provides the anaesthetist with a comprehensive examination of each of the endocrine conditions, covering underlying pathophysiological problems, and guidance on optimal anaesthetic care. It will be of use to trainee and consultant anaesthetists working in both specialist endocrine wards and general surgery wards where a patient with endocrine disease might present.
This book investigates the complex clinical challenges and pathophysiological considerations required for the safe administration of anesthesia to patients suffering from endocrine disorders. Author Mike James, an expert in the field, synthesizes current medical knowledge to provide a structured framework for managing patients who require surgical intervention. The text bridges the gap between theoretical endocrine pathology and the practical, high-stakes requirements of the operating room, offering guidance for both routine and specialized surgical settings.
