Neoplastic mimics or "pseudotumors" can simulate neoplasms on
all levels of analysis- clinical, radiologic, and pathologic--and
thus represent particular diagnostic pitfalls for the pathologist
that can ultimately lead to therapeutic misdirection.
This book provides the pathologist with detailed morphologic
descriptions and diagnostic guidance in recognizing these
neoplastic mimics as they occur in the genitourinary system. In
addition, descriptions and diagnostic guidance are provided for the
range of genitourinary lesions tumors that may mimic benign masses
but are in fact neoplastic. Throughout the book comparisons of
neoplastic mimics with true neoplasms are provided, at clinical,
gross, and histologic levels. In the presentation of every entity,
the points that contribute to differential diagnosis are
emphasized.
More than 500 color images and this analysis of diagnostic
mimics guide the pathologist through recognizing and distinguishing
the unusual variants, morphologic anomalies and misleading features
that may easily lead to an inaccurate interpretation and missed
diagnosis. Since many of entities described are uncommon
"Neoplastic Mimics in Genitourinary" emphasizes imaging and
clinical correlations throughout to support the pathologist as
consultant to the entire diagnostic and clinical management team.
Every pathologist who sees genitourinary cases will find this book
an invaluable working tool to ensure accurate diagnosis.
"Neoplastic Mimics in Genitourinary Pathology" features: Over
500 high-quality images showing the full range of neoplastic mimics
in the genitourinary tract Concise, specific text descriptions make
