SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This monograph represents the first attempt to gather all aspects of Fanconi's anemia in one source. The editors are well-known for their continuous research in the field and have aptly brought together contributions containing the most up-to-date information available. The difficulties in differential diagnosis and treatment are covered; and the outlook for cure via bone marrow transplantation is included. This overview will interest specialists in human genetics as well as all those dealing with this disease.
