DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
When a patient is under anesthesia, every second counts. An
intraoperative consultation provides essential information to ensure
every operation has a successful conclusion. The stakes are high and the
challenges are great – no special stains, limited access for consultation
with colleagues, often suboptimal slide preparation, and cases that may
be out of a pathologist’s normal sphere of practice.Diagnostic Pathology:
Intraoperative Consultation is designed to be the best resource when
pathologists need assistance. No time is wasted looking for information
because each chapter is directed to a specific question posed by a
surgeon, such as “Does this patient have pancreatic cancer?”, “Is there
an intrauterine pregnancy?”, “Does this patient have lung cancer?”, or
“Are the margins free of carcinoma?”. The clinical setting and what the
surgeon needs to know – and why – are explained. Specimen processing
(gross and microscopic), tissue selection, and reporting of results are
detailed. All major entities in the differential diagnosis are described
and shown in photographs. Major pitfalls are discussed and illustrated.
This is the book every pathologist will want at their side the next time a
page calls them to the frozen section room.
Diagnostic Pathology: Nonneoplastic Pediatric offers expert guidance
on over 270 of the most often encountered nonneoplastic entities
in pediatric pathology. Written by expert pathologists, this book
encompasses every major organ system and concentrates on reactive,
infectious, congenital, and genetic conditions with histopathology.
Transplant pathology is also covered. As usual, this book is filled with
high quality microscopic images. Each image is carefully annotated to
highlight the most diagnostically significant considerations. Concise,
bulleted text notes the most significant diagnostic factors. This volume
will serve as a valuable go-to resource for pathologists, fellows and
residents alike.This book features all the classic benefits of all Amirsys
