The Art of Neuroendocrinology: A Case-based Approach to Medical Decision-Making is not your standard textbook of pituitary endocrinology. This comprehensive collection of works presents unique, interesting, and often challenging patient cases. These reports illustrate the complexities of medical decision-making, incorporating evidence-based medicine and the practice of the art of medicine, in the evaluation and management of patients with various pituitary disorders. Experts in the field present their illustrative case studies, a related state-of-the-art review of the literature on one or more relevant topics, discuss the diagnostic and/or therapeutic dilemmas, share their thought processes to reflect their medical decision-making, and review the outcomes of the decisions in their patients. The purpose of this textbook is to bring together the art of the practice of neuroendocrinology, evidence-based medicine, pertinent clinical guidelines, and everyday problem-solving skills that we employ in the surgical/non-surgical evaluation and management of patients. While oriented towards healthcare professionals, this text will also be useful to patients and their families.
