This book serves as a one-stop, comprehensive reference for the pathology of salivary gland neoplasms, with an emphasis on numerous high-quality, illustrative photomicrographs. The authors incorporated the most cutting-edge genetic data emerging on such ......
Remarkable advances have occurred since the Series 3 Fascicle published in 1995 with paradigm shifts in every dimension of our understanding of lung tumors including clinical, radiologic, histopathologic, cytopathologic, immunohistochemical, molecular and therapeutic aspects. The molecular revolution leading to effective targeted therapies and ......
Since the publication of the previous edition of Tumors of the Esophagus and Stomach, great advances in many areas of tumor biology have led to a better understanding of the pathogenesis, pathology, and molecular biology of epithelial and stromal malignancies of the upper gastrointestinal tract. Many of these advances have led to specific ......
Numerous advances in our understanding of the pathology and molecular features of liver tumors have been made since the publication of the previous series, nearly two decades ago. Examples of recent advances include the identification of novel entities, including their precursor lesions, the discovery of key molecular changes, including the fusion ......
The understanding of diagnostic lymph node and spleen pathology has evolved at an impressive pace since 1995, when the third series AFIP atlas was published. Progress has been fuelled, in large part, by the application of a number of technologies to the study of hematopoietic neoplasms. The World Health Organization (WHO) classification scheme for ......
Since the publication of the third edition there have been several changes in the pathology and classification of these lesions. The current edition updates the status of heart tumours, with emphasis on newer findings, especially molecular advances. In most cases, the authors have followed the classification of the World Health Organization, whose ......
This edition describes the spectrum of neoplasms, hamartomas, hyperplasias, reactive lesions, and inflammatory pseudotumours arising from, or associated with, peripheral nerves. Included are lesions affecting spinal nerves and extradural portions of cranial nerves. Specifically excluded from this discussion are lesions of the optic nerve, a ......
The publication of this edition marks the transition in diagnosis of lower genital tract lesions from a largely morphologic activity to one based upon integrated assessment using microscopy and molecular biology. Furthermore, the ability to integrate these diagnostic approaches with clinical data for patient management has been heightened. The ......
Nonmelanocytic tumours of the skin form a large and heterogeneous group of lesions, ranging from common to extremely rare, which often appear to the practising pathologist to blend into one another and are difficult to identify correctly, especially in specimens, which often represent limited biopsies. There may be more different entities in this ......
