Description

Apply a systematic pattern recognition approach to achieve more accurate diagnoses of both neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases of the musculoskeletal system. Andrea Deyrup, MD, PhD and Gene P. Siegal, MD, PhD use a practical, pattern-based organization that helps you efficiently and confidently evaluate even the most challenging histologic specimens.

Key features

  • Compare specimens to commonly seen patterns,
  • categorize them accordingly, and turn directly to in-depth diagnostic guidance using the unique, pattern-based Visual Index at the beginning of the book. Includes guidance on both pathologic and radiologic diagnostic patterns.
  • Assess key pathologic and clinical aspects of neoplastic and non-neoplastic conditions with 800 high-quality, full-color images that help you evaluate and interpret both common and rare diseases.
  • Find complete coverage of the musculoskeletal system from Normal Bone Anatomy through discussions of all major classifications of disease, both neoplastic and non-neoplastic.
  • Progress logically from the histologic pattern, through the appropriate workup, around the pitfalls, and to the best diagnosis.
  • Expert Consult eBook version included with purchase. This enhanced eBook experience allows you to search all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.

Review quotes

"Practical Orthopedic Pathology uses a practical, pattern-based organization that helps clinicians confidently evaluate even the most challenging histologic specimens. The extraordinary illustrations represent the entire panoply of pathologic conditions, many of them only rarely seen." Reviewed by SirReadaLot.org, July 2015, Issue #195

"This is an excellent book and will probably be the first resource that many pathologists and residents reach for when encountering a bone biopsy while at the microscope...this book is highly recommended for all practicing pathologists, residents, and general hospital libraries." Reviewed by Kyle D. Perry, MD (University of Manitoba College of Medicine) Doody Score: 99 – 5 Stars!

"This is an authoritative, amply illustrated book on orthopedic pathology, using the pattern recognition approach, which looks at the radiology and histopathology of the condition or disease in question, as well as the various diagnostic considerations." Reviewed by Nano Khilnani, BizIndia.net
