Renal Pathophysiology book?

[bkflaneur]

Any recommendations for a good, concise renal pathophysiology book? Our class notes aren't helping. Thanks.

BRS Physiology helped me, and was useful for cardio/neuro/GI physio as well. More basic than class notes but if you can understand BRS, you will only have to fill in the blanks with all the excess crap your profs want you to learn. What is in BRS is what matters.

you might try Clinical Physiology of Acid-Base and Electrolyte Disorders, by Rose and Post. It's very thorough, but still concise and an easy read. It's paperback too, so not that $$. It helped clear up a lot of foggy areas in physiology...

Rose was the classic text we used in the dark ages when I went to medical school.

This is the best in the series (though the pulmonary book by West is a close 2nd). Don't worry about 1995 pub date, the content is as good as ever.

That's a good one too...as I recall I had both (and echoing the comment on West as well).
