The Oxford Case Histories series provides complex, case-based learning for medical trainees undertaking their exit examinations as well as consultants wishing to undertake continuing professional development. The skills necessary for confident and competent diagnosis and successful management of complex medical problems are developed through the study of individual patients. This series offers real-life cases specifically written to help enable trainees to meet the required standard prior to being awarded a certificate of completion of training (CCT). Each volume in the series is mapped to the core curricula and includes between 40-50 cases, comprising a brief clinical history and investigations, followed by questions on differential diagnosis and management, and detailed answers with discussion. At the end of each book, cases are listed by mode of presentation, aetiology, and diagnosis for quick reference. The series covers a wide range of specialties including general surgery, geriatric medicine, and infectious disease, and is an excellent revision aid for clinicians in specialist training (MRCP and above) and consultants undertaking continuing professional development.

The second edition of Transient Ischemic Attack and Stroke covers the clinical background and management of the full clinical spectrum of cerebrovascular disease, from TIA to vascular dementia, in a compact, but evidence-based format making a comprehensive primer in stroke medicine. Accurate diagnosis and appropriate investigation and management have a major impact on patient outcomes in cerebrovascular disease, such as the effect of urgent antithrombotic treatment on early recurrent stroke after TIA and minor stroke, the effect of interventions such as thrombectomy and hemicraniectomy in major acute stroke, and the effect of stroke units and organised stroke care. Written by a leading team of clinicians and researchers in the field, this book will be essential to neurologists, geriatricians, stroke physicians, allied health workers and all others with an interest in stroke.
