DESCRIPTION
Often times after examining a difficult case a pathologist will arrive at a differential diagnosis. However, the
majority of reference materials available are arranged in a traditional format where each entity is discussed in its
own section with little or no emphasis on differentials. This new series, Differential Diagnosis in Surgical
Pathology will help answer these questions. To help in these scenarios this book will be arranged according to
the most common differential diagnoses in breast pathology and describe the lesions side by side for easy
comparison. Each chapter will be formatted with the clinical and pathological findings in a brief table followed by
relevant images. There will be approximately 70 entities covered, which will include the most commonly
recurring in surgical breast pathology along with select rarer entities. By arranging the topics in this manner, this
series will be specifically tailored to the thought process of pathologists and provide practical guides to making
the correct diagnosis between commonly confused entities.
