Patterson, Wick Nonmelanocytic Tumors of the Skin

Nonmelanocytic tumors of the skin form a large and heterogeneous group of lesions, ranging from common to extremely rare, which often appear to the practicing pathologist to blend into one another and be difficult to identify correctly, especially in specimens which often represent limited biopsies. There may be more different entities in this group than in any other organ system. This encyclopedic work reveals a total of 226 tumors and tumor-like lesions. For each of these entities, the authors present the distinctive clinical and pathologic features, as well as an extensive differential diagnosis. Special studies, including immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy, and molecular profiles are presented where appropriate. The text is complemented by over 3,000 references, the latter including references through.
