How do you identify which neurological syndromes occur due to systemic
disease? Neurological problems commonly occur in the context of
underlying systemic disease, and may even be the presenting symptom of
a medical condition that has not yet been diagnosed. Consequently
neurologists need to be aware when a neurological presentation might
indicate an underlying systemic disorder. Neurologic Disorders due
to Systemic Disease provides the tools you need to make these
connections. The unique Neurologic presentations-based approach
relates to the common clinical situations you encounter, including:
Headache Stroke Movement disorders Neuromuscular disorders
Encephalopathies, Seizures, Myelopathies, Neuro-Ophthalmologic and
Neuro-otologic disorders, Sleep disorders, and others Major
categories of systemic illness are explored for each presentation to
guide you towards a likely cause. These include: Endocrine,
electrolyte, and metabolic disorders Systemic autoimmune disorders
Organ dysfunction and failure, and critical medical illness Systemic
cancer and paraneoplastic disorders Systemic infectious disease
Complications due to drugs and alcohol Vitamin and mineral
deficiencies Written by a leading cast of experts, with a practical
approach including ‘things to remember’ for each presentation,
Neurologic Disorders due to Systemic Disease should be on every
neurologist’s desk.
