Published Reviews | From customer reviews of the previous edition: 'Cases in Clinical Medicine is an extremely complementary resource for medical students - especially as quick reference material on the ward. If you are used to using Kumar & Clark's Clinical Medicine it has a familiar feel in its structure and ease of reading. It is well structured and contains pretty much all the regular cases you will experience on the wards during your clinical years. Being in my first clinical year, I have found it is a useful adjunct to the Oxford Handbook. The chapters list regular cases, with a run-through of the presentation (signs and symptoms), differentials, early and late management, available treatments and much more. There are loads of useful diagrams and images from clinical practice - X-rays, medial photographs, histology/cytology etc.'
