Featuring 900 full-color illustrations, this book is a concise and practical atlas of the surgical pathology and cytology of the head and neck. It covers the most common head and neck lesions and tumors the general pathologist sees in daily practice and will aid pathology residents and practitioners in quickly narrowing down a histologic differential diagnosis. Integral to the images provided are illustrated criteria for achieving a diagnosis—essentially what to look for when reviewing pathology slides. Differential diagnoses are shown, as are pitfalls in the diagnosis. A companion Website will offer the fully searchable text and an image bank.

Key Features:

Good jumping-off point for residents and practitioners in diagnosing head and neck lesions
Site-specific organization with formatted approach for each site, including a definition of the disease process, as well as epidemiologic and/or clinical findings
900 full-color images
