Rheumatic musculoskeletal conditions are common both in general and hospital practice. Musculoskeletal symptoms are a primary feature of many multisystem illnesses, not only in the autoimmune joint and connective tissue diseases, but also metabolic, endocrine, neoplastic, and infectious conditions. Symptoms are also common in the context of injury, age- related change, and psychological distress. Many conditions in rheumatology are a major source of morbidity and mortality. We have kept the format of the previous edition for this version but importantly have updated the text to include paediatric and adolescent rheumatology. Part I remains as a guide to evaluation of rheumatic and musculoskeletal disease from the point of referral and reflects the way clinical problems/ symptoms present to the clinician in real life. We have considered how this happens for adults, and new in this version, for children and adolescents, affected by rheumatological and musculoskeletal disease. The reader will find detail on musculoskeletal anatomy and functional anatomy in this part of the book. Part II remains as the section of the book where the reader can find disease- specific information (e.g. spondyloarthritis, vasculitis, back pain, and so on). We have included paediatric sections in each chapter where there is relevance for disease occurring in children and adolescents, noting the difference in disease and its management in children and adolescents compared with adults. Part III remains as medicine management and contains chapters on drugs used in rheumatology practice, glucocorticoid injection therapy, and rheumatological emergencies. We have tried to avoid duplication but cross reference between chapters. We hope this book is helpful and informative for all doctors, physiotherapists, and specialist nursing practitioners who are faced with managing people and patients with undiagnosed musculoskeletal symptoms or established rheumatic musculoskeletal diseases.
