Summary

"This new volume of the Biopsy Interpretation Series is a practical, illustrated guide to interpreting biopsies of the upper aerodigestive tract and ear. This resource describes and illustrates the distinguishing features of the wide array of neoplasms and non-neoplastic entities arising in the varied tissues of the head and neck region. Through content that concentrates specifically on the upper aerodigestive tract and ear, the authors address the biopsy interpretation problems confronting pathologists in daily practice. Also, this new title boasts 400 full-color illustrations, with an additional 460 e-figures, for a total of about 850 images and a test bank available on a companion website."--BOOK JACKET.
