A Comprehensive Clinical Approach to Thermoregulation, Diagnostic Reasoning, Infectious and Noninfectious Causes, Investigation, Management, and Long-Term Follow-Up
When fever persists and the cause remains unclear, every clinical clue matters.Fever of unknown origin (FUO) remains one of the most challenging problems in clinical medicine. Behind a prolonged, unexplained fever may lie an occult infection, systemic inflammatory disorder, malignancy, medication reaction, or another complex condition requiring careful investigation. Reaching the correct diagnosis demands more than laboratory testing—it requires a thorough understanding of disease mechanisms, clinical evidence, diagnostic probability, and patient safety.
Fever of Unknown Origin 2026–2027 provides a comprehensive, clinically focused exploration of persistent unexplained fever, guiding readers from the fundamental science of thermoregulation to advanced diagnostic investigation, therapeutic decision-making, and long-term patient management.
Organized into 25 detailed chapters across five major parts, this professional medical textbook combines essential scientific knowledge with practical clinical reasoning. It equips readers to understand why fever develops, recognize important diagnostic clues, distinguish infectious from noninfectious causes, interpret investigations responsibly, and approach complex clinical presentations with greater confidence.
WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER INSIDE
- The Science Behind Fever: Understand thermoregulation, hypothalamic control, inflammatory cytokines, pyrogens, fever patterns, and the critical differences between fever and hyperthermia.
- FUO Definitions and Clinical Classifications: Explore classical FUO, healthcare-associated presentations, neutropenic fever, immunocompromised patients, and HIV-associated conditions.
- A Systematic Diagnostic Approach: Learn how to evaluate prolonged fever through detailed patient histories, exposure assessments, physical examinations, and potentially diagnostic clues.
- Laboratory and Advanced Investigations: Develop a practical understanding of blood cultures, inflammatory markers, microbiological testing, molecular diagnostics, medical imaging, nuclear medicine, and tissue biopsy.
- Infectious Causes of FUO: Examine tuberculosis, endocarditis, deep-seated infections, zoonotic and vector-borne diseases, viral infections, fungal diseases, and parasitic conditions.
Beyond its detailed explanations, this textbook includes clinical reference tables, medical illustrations, section exercises, case-based questions, explanatory answers, practical appendices, a glossary, and an index to support effective learning and convenient reference.
An essential educational resource for:
- Medical students and postgraduate medical trainees
- Physicians, clinical practitioners, and advanced practice providers
- Nursing students and practicing nurses
- Infectious disease and internal medicine learners
- Laboratory, pharmacy, and allied health professionals
- Public health students, researchers, and medical educators
Move beyond memorizing causes of fever. Develop the clinical understanding needed to investigate uncertainty, interpret evidence, recognize danger, and support safer patient care.
Fever of Unknown Origin 2026–2027 brings together the science, diagnostic principles, and clinical perspectives needed to approach unexplained fever with knowledge, discipline, and confidence.
