DESCRIPTION
Effectively diagnose the complete range of pediatric pathologies, from neonatal disorders through adolescence.
Intended for a broad audience including general and pediatric pathologists, pediatricians, surgeons, oncologists,
and other pediatric subspecialties, Stocker & Dehner’s Pediatric Pathology is widely recognized as the definitive
go-to comprehensive clinical reference in the unique subspecialty of pediatric pathology – which, unlike other
subspecialties, is defined by an age group rather than an organ system or process. The tumors that occur in in-
fants and children are distinct from those that develop in adults, and they often exhibit exceptional clinical behav-
ior, thus requiring different diagnostic and therapeutic protocols. Authored by a host of prominent authorities on
this challenging area, the fourth edition of Stocker & Dehner’s Pediatric Pathology was designed to be a compre-
hensive volume on all major aspects of the pathologic anatomy of childhood disorders, providing the in-depth,
richly illustrated guidance you need to confidently evaluate and dependably report your findings. Sweeping up-
dates in this edition put all of the very latest knowledge and techniques at your fingertips.
