Full Description
A new volume in the Surgical Pathology: Case-Based Approach to Diagnosis series, Dermatopathology offers a practical, real-world approach to this complex area of surgical pathology. Actual cases, highlighted by hundreds of high-quality clinical and histologic photographs, help you learn and retain key information, including which pathologic findings are clinically significant and which are not. Useful as both an everyday bench-side reference and as an authoritative review for certification and recertification exams, this resource uses diagnostically relevant cases to teach how to evaluate and interpret even the most challenging lesions.
Discusses advances in molecular diagnostic testing, its capabilities and its limitations, including targeted and personalized medicine
Incorporates the latest TNM staging and WHO classification systems, as well as new diagnostic biomarkers and their utility in differential diagnosis, newly described variants, and new histologic entities
Integrates dermatopathology, clinical correlations, and clinical photographs throughout
Features up-to-date information on biologics, drug eruptions, and other developments in therapeutics
