History of sickle cell anemia -- Genetics and pathophysiology of sickle cell anemia -- Variants of sickle cell anemia -- Clinical features of sickle cell anemia -- The spleen and sickle cell anemia -- Hepatobiliary complications of sickle cell anemia -- Acute chest syndrome and sickle cell anemia -- Musculoskeletal manifestations of sickle cell anemia -- Gastrointestinal complications of sickle cell anemia -- Leg ulcers in patients with sickle cell anemia -- The hand and foot syndrome in sickle cell anemia -- Acute appendicitis and sickle cell anemia -- Ophthalmological manifestations of sickle cell anemia -- Cardiovascular complications of sickle cell anemia -- Cerebrovascular complications of sickle cell anemia -- Renal complications of sickle cell anemia -- Priapism and sickle cell anemia -- Perioperative management of patients with sickle cell anemia -- Recent advances in the management of patients with sickle cell anemia -- Blood transfusion therapy for patients with sickle cell anemia -- Hydroxyurea treatment for sickle cell anemia -- Hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation for patients with sickle cell anemia. .

This book is a wide-ranging guide to the diagnosis and management of the numerous medical and surgical complications that may arise in patients with sickle cell anemia. After introductory chapters on the genetics, pathophysiology, clinical features, and variants of sickle cell anemia, the complications observed in different parts of the body are addressed in a series of well-illustrated chapters. The coverage includes splenic, hepatobiliary, musculoskeletal, gastrointestinal, ophthalmological, cardio- and cerebrovascular, and renal complications, as well as acute chest syndrome, leg ulcers, hand and foot syndrome, acute appendicitis, and priapism. Treatment-oriented chapters consider perioperative management, blood transfusion therapy, hydroxyurea treatment, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and emerging strategies. The book is clearly written in a distinctive bullet point format for ease of reference and emphasizes especially aspects of practical significance. It will be of value for hematologists, general surgeons, internists, pediatricians, pediatric surgeons, fellows, residents, medical students, and nurses.
