Immune-Mediated Myopathies and Neuropathies: Current Trends and Future Prospects
By Balan Louis Gaspar
The book covers all aspects of immune-mediated diseases of the muscle and nerve, which are a group of complex diseases, whose diagnosis needs a team of specialists in the field of neuropathology, immunopathology, neurology, and rheumatology. Nerve and muscle biopsy evaluation is invaluable in distinguishing immune-mediated from etiologies and therefore, despite being invasive, pathological evaluation of nerve and muscle has stood the test of time. Chapters cover all the essential aspects of each disease entity viz. the pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnostic armamentarium, and guidelines for diagnosis and management. It is supplemented with full-colorful illustrations and photomicrographs for better comprehension. It includes a chapter highlighting the current progress in the field of immune-mediated myopathies and neuropathies as it is a rapidly evolving field with the addition of many new entities.
In today’s fast-paced and complex world, immune-mediated diseases have become one of the biggest challenges to modern medicine. These diseases can affect any part of our body and can cause persistent disability and even death if not managed promptly. This is where “Immune-Mediated Diseases of Muscle and Nerve: Pathology and Clinical Correlates” by Balan Louis Gaspar becomes relevant.
