内容简介

In this fourth edition of the classic work on malignant blood cancers, the team of editors and over 100 international leaders in the field provide a comprehensive text on the diagnosis and treatment of all hematologic malignancies, both common and rare. The sixty-two chapters are divided into sections on Chronic Leukemias and Related Disorders, Acute Leukemias, Myeloma and Related Disorders, Lymphomas, and Supportive Care, with a devoted editor for each section. This extensively revised and updated edition reflects the tremendous progress in the science and treatment of hematologic malignancies during the eight years since the third edition in 1995. Revisions and new chapters include coverage of stem cell transplantation, molecular genetics, monoclonal antibodies, and new treatment modalities. The excellent discussions of current therapies for all hematologic neoplasms are more detailed than those in general oncology or hematology texts, making this an essential reference for all hematologists and oncologists.
