Written by the authors of the renowned embryology textbooks The Developing Human and Before We Are Born, Concise Clinical Embryology: An Integrated, Case-Based Approach offers essential, high-yield information and high-quality clinical cases to illustrate key principles of embryology and their relevance to everyday practice. Ideally tailored to the needs of today’s medical students and medical courses, this concise text clearly explains how embryology relates to other medical disciplines and its importance in safe, effective clinical practice. Abundant illustrations throughout help you grasp highly visual concepts quickly and easily. Provides easily digestible, clinically oriented coverage of human development, establishing key principles in a week-by-week, stage-by-stage approach, before moving on to fetal organ development by body system. Includes clinical cases and follow-up questions in each chapter that help relate key principles to everyday practice, aid in problem-based learning, and offer review for exam preparation. Covers the latest advances in embryology, including normal and abnormal embryogenesis, causes of birth defects, and the role of genes in human development. Contains superb illustrations from cover to cover, including diagnostic images, full color figures, histology, and more. Summarizes molecular biology highlights throughout the text.

This is a complete textbook on human histology for undergraduate medical students. It includes: - Concise text with functional correlation for quick recapitulation during examinations. - 117 photomicrographs to help identify the microscopic structures. - 122 flowcharts that help students to revise and memorize the microanatomy. - 106 practice figures (HE pencil drawings) which are easily reproducible in theory examinations. - 175 3D illustrations that provide a visual grasp of difficult concepts. - A summary (examination guide) to overcome the difficulty of summarizing the facts in written assessments. - Interesting facts to isolate them from main text, so that these facts should not be missed by the reader. - Clinical correlation for orientation towards pathogenesis of diseases (vertical integration).

Written by some of the world's most famous anatomists, the 10th edition of The Developing Human: Clinically Oriented Embryology continues to present medical students with a comprehensive and easily digestible review of this complex topic. Clearly written and well-structured descriptions include just the information that’s needed, while nearly 600 illustrations help provide a clinically oriented guide to human development, utilizing a week-by-week and stage-by-stage approach to describe fetal organ and system development. Review questions and answers at the end of each chapter allow for effective exam preparation. Covers the latest advances in embryology, including normal and abnormal embryogenesis, causes of birth defects, and the role of genes in human development. Details how discoveries in molecular biology have affected clinical practice, including the development of sophisticated new techniques such as recumbent DNA technology and stem cell manipulation. Clinical case presentations, highlighted in special boxes, demonstrate how embryology concepts relate to clinical practice and are ideal for preparing for the USMLE Step 1. Three-dimensional animations — 2 new to this edition — help visual learners understand the subjects as discussed in the book as a whole.
