Description
The completely revised and updated New Edition of this definitive text—now in full color! Long known as the source to consult for guidance
on diagnosis, prognosis, plan management, and genetic counseling, this easy-to-use reference focuses on the patterns of human defects
caused by inborn errors in morphogenesis as opposed to defects caused by mechanical problems. It provides a wealth of information on
normal and abnormal morphogenesis * minor anomalies and their relevance * clinical approaches to specific diagnoses * and normal standards
of measurement for the entire spectrum of disorders. Each chapter includes a description of the specific abnormality—including occasional
associated abnormalities—natural history, etiology, and references. On opposing pages are several descriptive photographs and line drawings
of either an individual with the abnormality or specific features of the abnormality.
Audience:
Neonatologists, Perinatologists, Geneticists, Genetic Counselors, Pediatricians, Obstetricians
