Biopsy Interpretation of the Liver, Second Edition offers pathologists clear, practical guidelines for recognizing and diagnosing the full spectrum of liver disorders. Coverage begins with the basics—including technical considerations, liver anatomy, and examination methods—and progresses to specific disorders, with particular emphasis on histopathology. This completely updated Second Edition includes new material on transplantation pathology and new chapters on immunopathology and molecular pathology of liver diseases. A companion Website will provide the fully searchable text, over 700 additional full-color images of common and rare entities, and a test bank that is ideal for board exam preparation.
This volume of the Biopsy Interpretation Series is a practical, superbly illustrated guide to interpreting gastrointestinal tract mucosal biopsies. The book describes and illustrates the distinguishing features of non-neoplastic lesions, polyps, and neoplasms of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, and anus. The author addresses the biopsy interpretation issues confronting pathologists in daily practice and offers advice on avoiding pitfalls in biopsy diagnosis. The up-to-date coverage includes detailed information on newly recognized serrated polyps. A bound-in CD-ROM contains 955 full-color digital images of common and rare entities, and includes a quiz mode that is ideal for board exam preparation.
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an intracellular organelle responsible for protein folding and assembly, lipid and sterol biosynthesis, and calcium storage. A number of biochemical, physiological, or pathological stimuli can interrupt protein folding process, causing accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the ER lumen, a condition called “ER stress”. To cope with accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins, the ER has evolved a group of signaling pathways termed “Unfolded Protein Response (UPR)” or “ER stress response” to align cellular physiology. To maintain ER homeostasis, transcriptional regulation mediated through multiple UPR branches is orchestrated to increase...
The revised Fourth Edition of this highly acclaimed reference is a practical, state-of-the-art, superbly illustrated guide to the evaluation and clinical correlates of prostate biopsy findings. This edition features expanded coverage of mimickers of prostate cancer, a new chapter on immunohistochemistry and molecular techniques, a major update to the Gleason grading system, new information on histologic changes following radiation therapy, and an expanded section on tumors of specialized prostatic stroma. The book contains nearly 300 full-color illustrations. A companion online image bank provides over 1,800 full-color images of specimens at various magnifications, plus a question-and-answer review of prostate pathology.
Biopsy Interpretation of the Bladder, Second Edition presents state-of-the-art, practical information that is required to evaluate biopsies of the urothelial tract. From normal anatomy and histology to a range of both common and unusual pathological findings, this diagnostic resource delivers current information to help accurately identify all lesions, tumors, and tumor-like lesions for the bladder. Highlights of this edition include full-color illustrations throughout, a new chapter on urine cytology, increased emphasis on differential diagnosis, more tables with immunohistochemistry panels, and the latest World Health Organization and International Society of Urologic Pathology classification system. A companion website includes the fully searchable text, an image bank with 1,500 additional e-figures, and an interactive quiz bank that is ideal for board exam preparation.
A practical guide for the diagnostic surgical pathologist, this book presents the diverse spectrum of pathologic alterations that occur in the breast in a manner analogous to the way they are encountered in daily practice. Lesions are grouped according to their histologic patterns to simulate the way pathologists face these lesions as they examine microscopic slides. The approach is based on pattern recognition and emphasizes differential diagnosis. The book contains over 500 full-color photomicrographs and 50 tables summarizing key clinical and pathologic features and differential diagnostic issues. A companion Website will offer 900 full-color images, plus the fully searchable text and a test bank that is ideal for board preparation.
This new volume of the Biopsy Interpretation Series addresses biopsies of the uterine cervix and corpus (endometrium) in one text. It provides a practical approach to some of the most common biopsy material encountered by surgical pathologists. Normal histology, non-neoplastic conditions, and neoplasia of the cervix and uterine body are covered using current terminology and concepts. Emphasis is on morphologic features and immunohistochemistry in the diagnostic material. Close attention is given to differential diagnoses, including benign mimics of tumors. The book features over 300 full-color images. A companion Website will provide over 2,300 color images, plus a test bank that is ideal for board exam preparation.

This new volume of the Biopsy Interpretation Series is a practical, superbly illustrated guide to the technical and interpretive aspects of a frozen section. The focus is on use of the frozen section in intraoperative management of patients, particularly those with tumors. The authors give pathologists a thorough knowledge of the utility and limitations of a frozen section, the appropriate circumstances for doing one, the proper techniques, and the interpretation and reporting of results. The book features more than 300 full-color gross and microscopic images, with discussions of differential diagnosis. A companion Website will provide 300 additional figures, plus a test bank that is ideal for board exam preparation.
