Overview

This popular collection of fifty anatomical case studies, now revised by a leading clinical anatomist, covers all the major regions of the body: head and neck, thorax, abdomen, pelvis and perineum, and limbs. Each case includes a patient's history, physical exam findings, diagnosis, therapy, and a discussion. The book has been used as a supplementary text by thousands of first-year medical students in gross anatomy for its lucid and engaging demonstration of anatomical reasoning in clinical settings.
