Manual of Canine and Feline Endocrinology, 5th Edition, takes a problem-oriented approach to endocrinology and focuses on the conditions most commonly seen in general practice. An introduction to endocrine diseases, covering underlying principles and discussion of the genetic basis for endocrine disease ha been expanded; sections comprehensively covering disorders of specific glands and systems; and a section on unusual endocrine gland diseases guides through the diagnostic approach and steps in handling complex cases. Several endocrine disorders, such as feline acromegaly and hyperaldosteronism, have risen in importance. The use of diet and novel insulins in diabetic cats, and new drugs such as trilostane and methimazole, are now considered routine; and the genetic risks associated with many disorders have been elucidated as well.
