The Oxford Textbook of Neurohaematology: A Comprehensive Guide to Neurological Conditions in Haematological Diseases

Authored by Tracy Batchelor, this esteemed textbook is a one-stop resource for understanding the diverse neurological conditions associated with malignant and classical haematological diseases. The book covers the entire spectrum of haematological diseases, exploring their impact on the central, peripheral, and autonomic nervous systems.

Comprehensive Coverage of Neurological Conditions

The book is divided into three sections, each delving into a specific aspect of neurohaematology. The first section focuses on neurological conditions associated with malignant haematological diseases, including:

• Primary haematological malignancies of the nervous system, such as primary central nervous system lymphomas and vitreoretinal lymphoma
• Histiocytic tumours of the central nervous system, including Langerhans and non-Langerhans histiocytoses
• Neurological complications of systemic myeloid and lymphoid malignancies

Neurological Complications of Treatment

The second section of the book explores the neurological complications arising from the treatment of haematological malignancies, including:

• Chemotherapy-related neurological complications
• Radiation-induced neurological complications
• Immunotherapy-related neurological complications, including chimeric antigen receptor T cells

Classical Haematological Diseases and Neurological Complications

The third and final section of the book examines the neurological complications associated with classical haematological diseases, such as:

• Disorders of red blood cells, including sickle cell anaemia
• Disorders of platelets and coagulation, including immune thrombocytopenia
• Disorders of white blood cells, including hyperviscosity syndrome

Expert Guidance for Healthcare Professionals

Edited by leading authorities in the field, this textbook serves as an invaluable resource for neurologists, haematologists, oncologists, and allied health professionals involved in the management of haematological diseases and their neurological manifestations.
