Handbook of Autopsy Practice, Fourth Edition is divided into
three parts. Part I contains six new chapters in which the reader
will find an assortment of tools that will increase the value of
the autopsy. Included in the section are valuable resources and
tools such as a sample next-of-kin letter, a quality assurance
worksheet, new discourse on the dissection procedure which is
accompanied by a worksheet and template for the gross description.
There is also a new, detailed discussion of the safe handling of
sharps, complete with photographs and the reader will also find the
updated requirements of the Eye Bank of America and the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration for ocular tissue transplantation.
Part II has been updated with new diseases and recent references
added. Practicing autopsy pathologists, residents and students are
invited to review this alphabetical listing of disorders before
each autopsy in order to re-acquaint themselves with what they
might encounter. Part III provides a series of tables providing
organ weights and body measurements for fetuses, children and
adults.

resource for clinicians, pathologists, residents and students who
