This issue addresses the most difficult diagnostic challenges and focuses on differential diagnosis in soft tissue tumors. Each presentation is accompanied by abundant histologic slides to display the diagnostic differences. Additionally, authors selected two to five diagnoses they find can be particularly difficult, with an emphasis on how to approach such lesions on biopsy samples where relevant and the role of ancillary studies. Topics include coverage of diagnostically challenging: Vascular lesions; Retroperitoneal “Fatty” tumors of adults; Smooth muscle neoplasms; Chondro-osseous lesions of soft tissue; Pediatric tumors; Epithelioid tumors; Spindle cell neoplasms of the retroperitoneum; and Peripheral nerve sheath tumors. Also presented are: Non-mesenchymal mimics of benign and malignant soft tissue tumors; Soft tissue tumors with overlapping molecular findings; Recently characterized soft tissue tumors; Benign mimics of sarcoma; Advances in molecular methods in the analysis of soft tissue tumors and therapeutic implications; and Myoepithelial tumors: an update.

      L'aide-soignant, pour rester en cohérence avec ses valeurs de soignant et répondre aux critères de soins, doit se centrer sur le malade et ses besoins plutôt que sur la technique. C'est pourquoi les fiches qui constituent cet ouvrage sont articulées autour de la règle d'ORR (Organisation, Réalisation, Relation) qui permet de mettre en place les gestes et techniques nécessaires tout en les reliant systématiquement au patient qui fait l'objet de ces soins. Cet ouvrage, découpé en 14 parties, offre 78 fiches, claires et synthétiques, classées selon les grands besoins de Virginia Henderson et agrémentées d'illustrations. Chaque fiche correspond à un soin et détaille l'essentiel que doit maîtriser l'aide-soignant à travers des encadrés où sont présentés les astuces ou points importants à retenir ou les dangers à éviter. Cette 6e édition, revue et augmentée, souligne, grâce à de nouvelles fiches pratiques et concrètes (comme par exemple, la prévention des risques liés à la chaleur, le circuit des déchets, l'accueil des aidants…), la dimension relationnelle existant aussi bien avec les patients qu'avec l'équipe soignante (transmissions, collaboration entre infirmiers et aides-soignants). Agréables et pratiques, ces fiches permettent aux soignants (élèves et professionnels) de trouver la réponse la mieux adaptée aux différents besoins de la personne soignée.
