Here, leading experts from the fields of rheumatology and pulmonology provide a masterclass in the care of patients with systemic illnesses that involve the immune system and the lungs.
Certain diseases may involve organ systems that cross the boundaries of specialties. For instance, a patient with scleroderma can develop interstitial lung disease, or a patient with relapsing polychondritis can have the clinical manifestation of subglottic stenosis. This book represents a collaboration between specialties, helping clinicians recognize the implications of disease both within their own specialty and in the overlapping specialty. Here, leading experts from the fields of rheumatology and pulmonology provide a masterclass in the care of patients with systemic illnesses that involve the immune system and the lungs.
