Marchevsky, Husain Galateau-Salle Practical Pathology of Serous Membranes

This practical reference reviews the pathology of neoplastic and non-neoplastic conditions of the pleura and peritoneum. The epidemiology, pathology and clinical aspects of malignant mesothelioma are discussed in depth, and other conditions from peritoneal cysts, endometriosis and deciduosis, to lymphomas and soft-tissue tumors are covered.

• High-quality color images and tables listing diagnostic features, immunostains and molecular findings help diagnostic effectiveness
  
• There are few volumes dedicated to this subspecialty, meaning the book has particular appeal to pathologists, pulmonologists, radiologists, thoracic surgeons and trainees
  
• A detailed discussion of the cytopathology of mesothelioma and other tumors in effusions and other specimens is given, helping to broaden the reader’s knowledge and aid effective diagnosis
