In the 8
years since the publication of the first edition of Essentials of Anatomic
Pathology, great strides have been made in our understanding of diseases and
neoplastic processes. Many clinically important new histopathologic entities
have been described or more fully defined in virtually every organ. Numerous
clinically important diagnostic and prognostic markers have entered routine
practice. Genetic testing for the early detection of cancers and the molecular
classification of diseases has become increasingly important. This is an age of
enlightenment in surgical pathology, and the authors of this new volume have
captured this sense of excitement herein. This much praised and widely used
reference manual on has been extensively revised and expanded to cover the
entire field of anatomic pathology. The Third Edition features the
incorporation of full-color images in the text with updates of new diagnostic
and prognostic information. New classifications and numerous new entities and
histologic variants are fully explored. Useful immunostaining biomarkers and
emerging molecular targets and relevant molecular findings that have emerged
from recent genomic studies are incorporated in each chapter. Written by
internationally recognized authorities, the comprehensive, evidence-based
practice information is presented in an outline format that is clear and easy
to follow. Up-to-date and richly detailed, Essentials of Anatomic Pathology,
Third Edition offers both the pathologist-in-training and the practicing
pathologist a concise summary of all the critical information needed to recognize,
understand and interpret anatomic pathology.
