Summary:

Written by more than 20 acknowledged experts, this volume is the most comprehensive and authoritative reference on diagnostic surgical pathology of the head and neck. The book describes in detail the vast array of lesions and disease entities that can occur in the head and neck and presents practical approaches to establishing a diagnosis. More than 1,100 illustrations--including 535 in full color--depict the full range of pathologic findings. The contributors discuss the most useful aids to differential diagnosis, including clinical information and data from ancillary studies such as immunohistochemistry.
