This monograph fills a wide information gap for the clinician and researcher alike. Containing numerous clinical photographs, statistical data, and concise descriptions of the initial mucocutaneous symptoms, it will help the clinician to understand and identify the disease. Other manifestations of BD in such systems as the cardiac, vascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, to name a few, are also described. In addition, the book surveys the drugs and other therapeutic modalities known to have beneficial effects. Lastly, the book's synopsis of the pathogenic and immunologic features of the disease will be useful to scientists interested in the research aspects of BD.
