The Pituitary, Fourth Edition, continues the tradition of a cogent blend of basic science and clinical medicine which has been the successful hallmark of prior editions. This comprehensive text is devoted to the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of pituitary disorders. The new edition has been extensively revised to reflect new knowledge derived from advances in molecular and cell biology, biochemistry, diagnostics, and therapeutics as they apply to the pituitary gland. The wide spectrum of clinical disorders emanating from dysfunction of the master gland is described in detail by experts in the field. Fundamental mechanisms underlying disease pathogenesis are presented to provide the reader with an in-depth understanding of mechanisms subserving both normal and disordered pituitary hormone secretion and action. This extensive body of knowledge is useful for students, trainees, physicians, and scientists who need to understand critical pituitary functions and how to care for patients with pituitary disorders. Chapters provide medical students, clinical and basic endocrinology trainees, endocrinologists, internists, pediatricians, gynecologists, and neurosurgeons with a comprehensive, yet integrated, text devoted to the science and art of pituitary medicine. Brings together pituitary experts from all areas of research and practice who take readers all the way from bench research, to genomic and proteomic analysis, clinical analysis, and new therapeutic approaches to pituitary disordersSaves researchers and clinicians time in quickly accessing the very latest details on a broad range of issues related to normal and diseased pituitary functionProvides a common language for endocrinologists, neurosurgeons, OB/GYNs, and endocrine researchers to discuss how the pituitary gland and hormones affect each major organ system.

The Pituitary, Fifth Edition continues the tradition of a cogent blend of basic science and clinical medicine. The comprehensive text written by expert pituitary scholars is devoted to the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of pituitary disorders. The new fifth edition has been extensively revised to reflect the most recent data on new research advances in tumorigenesis and new therapeutic approaches for pituitary tumors, particularly in acromegaly and Cushing disease. Notably, new chapters devoted to the Pituitary-Immune Interface and Pituitary Radiotherapy have been included, along with a chapter on Aggressive Pituitary Adenomas developed to align with the WHOs Classification of Pituitary Tumors. Furthermore, new authors have been invited, ensuring a fresh perspective on critical issues in the field.

For this new edition of Conn & Melmed's Endocrinology: Basic and Clinical Principles, a panel of distinguished scientists and clinicians has completely rewritten every chapter to reflect the latest advances in our understanding of the endocrine system. Maintaining the original goal of the first edition to integrate the basic science of endocrinology with its physiological and clinical principles, the authors have succinctly summarized in 450 pages the latest findings on hormone secretion and hormone action, as well as all of the most recent insights into the physiology and pathophysiology of hormonal disorders. Coverage extends across the entire spectrum of endocrinology-from mammalian cells, plants, and insects to animal models and human diseases-with much increased coverage of diabetes and metabolism. Highlights include cutting-edge discussions of appetite disorders, obesity, reproductive failure, control of thyroid function, hormone action in humans and the lower species, and the mechanisms subserving hormone secretion. Concise yet comprehensive, Endocrinology: Basic and Clinical Principles, Second Edition offers students, clinicians, and scientists access to the entire spectrum of endocrinological knowledge, authoritatively illuminating the basic scientific principles underlying every aspect of hormone secretion and action, and leading the reader towards a full understanding of the pathogenesis and management of human endocrine disease.
