In the decade since the publication of the Third Series Fascicle on
Tumors of the Central Nervous System, many new entities have been
described, prognostic significance of certain tumor subtypes
established, grading systems revised, and molecular features have
been correlated with tumor types and grades. Drs. Burger and
Scheithauer have integrated all of these new findings, as well as
classical morphological clinical and neuroradiological descriptions
and illustrations, into an entirely new and completely up-to-date
text/atlas that demystifies the complex subject of CNS tumors and
tumor-like lesions for the general pathologists. The discussion of
normal anatomy includes cytologic and radiologic correlations, as
do discussions of each of the common and rare CNS lesions.
Virtually all of the non-radiographic illustrations are in color,
and references are current through 2006 and 2007 (the 2007 World
Health Organization classification is used throughout the
Fascicle). In addition to encyclopedic coverage of CNS neoplasms,
approximately 15 percent of the almost 600 text pages are devoted
to the numerous benign tumor-like lesions of various etiologies
that may be mistaken for neoplasms. A set of fifteen Appendices is
devoted to differential diagnostic algorithms which simplify the
approach to a difficult specimen. The authoritative yet
user-friendly approach of the authors has created a work that will
be useful for many years to both pathologist and clinicians
interested in tumors of the central nervous system.
