The late Arnold J. Rudolph, MD was the most meticulous photographic ar chivist in all of neonatology. In a practice spanning forty years, Dr. Rudolph collected photographs of virtually every disease, disorder, a nd condition affecting the newborn. This material has been published i n a five-volume masterwork, from which this Brief Atlas has been deriv ed. In this new book, colleagues of Dr. Rudolph have assembled a repre sentative sampling of the most common disorders of the newborn in a co mpact, economical format. The major sections cover neonatal-perinatal medicine, musculoskeletal disorders and congenital deformities, and pr oblems of the head, neck, eye and central nervous system. Dermatology and perinatal infections are addressed, followed by systemic problems encountered by newborns.
