Diagnostic Liver Pathology

A morphologic approach is emphasized in this book, beginning with abnormal "patterns" and working through the correlations to a differential diagnosis of both primary and secondary liver (and biliary) disease. A comprehensive reference, this text covers all aspects of the diagnosis of liver disease in surgical pathology. The bulk of the text is devoted to the diagnosis of a wide variety of liver disorders with discussions centring around histological features. Liver disorders covered include: acute viral hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, chronic hepatitis, cholestasis and bile duct disorders, infections, drug-induced injury, cirrhosis, metabolic disorders, vascular disorders, liver transplantation, cysts and neoplasms.
