Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Over recent years complicating infections have played an increasingly prominent role in haematological practice. Improved, and often more radical, methods of treating leukaemia and other malignant conditions by chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation is one cause of these increased infection hazards. The transfusion of blood and blood products has also been rendered potentially more hazardous since the incidence of HIV infection has been identified: this has considerably altered the management of haemophilia and other allied disorders and the screening of products prior to transfusion. Transfusion medicine has also been complicated by the discovery of new hepatitis viruses. This book describes the interaction between haematology and microbial disease. Recent developments in this area are discussed, an up-to-date review of the more established infection problems such as the effects of malaria and the consequences of splenectomy is also included. This book is designed for haematologists, microbiologists and infectious disease physicians as well as those involved in blood transfusion medicine.
