Skin Lymphoma - The Illustrated Guide

Skin lymphomas are relatively rare and can be easily misdiagnosed as psoriasis or dermatitis. These lymphomas can be fatal. Consequently, those in training in dermatology and pathology need to have a good understanding of the clinical presentations and the pathological correlates of this challenging disease.

This updated edition provides:
A full-colour illustrated text and atlas that combines pathology with clinical features and treatment
updated nomenclature according to WHO/EORTC and WHO classifications
Images to expand the diagnostic potential
Cases to enhance the scope for teaching and learning

About the author

Report

"Diese Buch [...] ist einfach ohne Zweifel das beste Nachschlagewerk für kutane Lymphome. [...] Die klinischen Fotos sind meisterhaft und zeigen das weite Spektrum der kutanen Lymphome, während die mikroskopischen Bilder, hierunter viele immunhistochemische Färbungen, einem dabei helfen dem diagnostischen Prozess zu folgen. [...] Das Layout ist sehr großzügig mit viel Freiraum [...] Mein Lieblingskapitel ist das über eine Krankheit, die es eigentlich gar nicht gibt - das Pseudolymphom. Alle Entitäten, die man klinisch oder histologisch mit einem Lymphom verwechseln könnte, werden abgehandelt. (JDDG, Band 7, Dezember 2009)
