This concisely written, abundantly illustrated guide to a wide range of topics in gastrointestinal neoplasia facilitates the evaluation and accurate diagnosis of gastrointestinal neoplasms, both straightforward and challenging. This approachable guide covers the entire tubular GI tract and features more than 600 high quality images. Written and arranged with the busy practicing pathologist in mind, this practical guide includes, for each entity, definitions and terminology, gross and morphologic features, differential diagnoses, useful ancillary tests, staging and grading parameters, and clinical considerations. Beautiful color figures throughout the volume highlight essential histologic features as well as differential diagnoses and potential diagnostic pitfalls. The book is organized into six introductory chapters focused on approaches to neoplasia, followed by 6 organ-specific chapters covering each segment of the GI tract. The final two chapters offer an in-depth discussion of immunohistochemistry and molecular pathology of gastrointestinal neoplasia. This book is a vital reference for practicing pathologists, and with its clear, concise presentation it is also an excellent resource for pathologists in training. Key Features: Provides clear, concise coverage of neoplastic disease across the entire tubular gastrointestinal tract Offers over 600 high-quality images highlighting key differential points and potentially misleading variants Comprehensive tables cover diagnostic features, tumor types, and other crucial data for pathologists About the Authors: Laura W.

This expert volume in the Diagnostic Pathology series is an excellent point-of-care resource for practitioners at all levels of experience and training. Covering all aspects of gastrointestinal pathology to help pathologists differentiate between closely related digestive tract disorders, this volume incorporates the most up-to-date scientific and technical knowledge, providing a comprehensive overview of all key issues relevant to today's practice. Richly illustrated and easy to use, the fourth edition of Diagnostic Pathology: Gastrointestinal is a one-stop resource for every practicing pathologist, fellow, resident, or student as an ideal day-to-day reference or as a reliable training resource, and is useful to even the most experienced pathologist for current details on the diagnosis and characterization of neoplastic and nonneoplastic diseases of the digestive tract. - Covers all areas of gastrointestinal pathology—from esoteric topics like microsporidia to common issues like serrated colorectal polyps - Includes important new material on recently discovered genetic alterations in GI cancers, targeted gene therapies, and the changed approach to GI endocrine neoplasms, as well as numerous new chapters on other timely issues, such as drug-induced GI diseases, and more - Contains significantly updated information throughout, including new content, images, and references that reflect the most current diagnoses, provide ease for daily case sign-out, and contain details related to the latest WHO Classification of Tumours: Digestive System Tumours - Features more than 2,700 print and online-only images, including histology and gross pathology images, full-color medical illustrations, clinical photographs, and radiology images to help practicing and in-training pathologists reach a confident diagnosis - Employs consistently templated chapters, bulleted content, key facts, annotated images, and an extensive index for quick, expert reference at the point of care - Includes an eBook version that enables you to access all text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud
Atlas of Esophagus and Stomach Pathology provides an image-based resource for those studying normal histology of the upper gastrointestinal tract, as well as the microscopic manifestations of developmental abnormalities, toxic insults, infectious diseases, inflammatory and autoimmune conditions, and neoplasia in the esophagus and stomach. Because modern gastrointestinal pathology practice centers on specimens obtained during endoscopic examination, the atlas focuses on biopsy pathology, providing “real-world” microscopic images and ancillary diagnostic studies for most commonly-encountered abnormalities and diseases affecting these two organs. The book is supplemented with endoscopic and special study images. Authored by nationally and internationally recognized pathologists, Atlas of Esophagus and Stomach Pathology is a valuable tool for both pathologists-in-training seeking to make “new acquaintances”, and practicing surgical pathologists in need of a quick visual reference in recalling “old friends” in the world of diagnostic gastrointestinal pathology.
