Dr. Robert Volpe and his distinguished contributors comprehensively
review the latest thinking about the theoretical, experimental, and
clinical aspects of autoimmune endocrine disorders. These
world-renowned experts examine the pathogenesis and immunogenetics
of these diseases, discuss the role of sex hormones in
autoimmunity, and elucidate the nature of autoantigens. They also
provide clinical detail on a wide variety of autoimmune
endocrinopathies, including autoimmune thyroid disease, Graves'
ophthalmopathy and dermopathy, human insulin-dependent diabetes
mellitus, and autoimmune adrenocortical failure. Postpartum
autoimmune endocrine syndromes, autoimmune hypophysitis, and the
polyglandular autoimmune syndromes are also discussed in detail.
Comprehensive and authoritative, Autoimmune Endocrinopathies
provides today's most up-to-date understanding of the etiology and
pathogenesis of autoimmune endocrine diseases.
