Summary:
Since publication of the first edition in 1996, Surgical Pathology Dissection has emerged as the standard gross manual in the field. This completely revised and updated second edition continues to fill the need for a comprehensive, fully illustrated guide to the preparation, dissection, and handling of surgical pathology tissue specimens. The descriptive text is enhanced by 73 full-page illustrations. Every organ system continues to feature a section on "Important Issues to Address in Your Surgical Pathology Report" and references selected for their pertinent coverage of specimen handling. Surgical Pathology Dissection has retained its concise and easy-to-use format and remains a must-have for every surgical pathologist, resident, and pathology assistant.
