Pediatric Neoplasia

Combining classic observations with the latest data, this remarkable new text details the pathology of tumors and tumor-like conditions in children. It fully integrates -- for the first time -- the morphologic and biologic studies used to characterize lesions, promoting an interdisciplinary understanding that will aid in the effort to control the disease process. Many of the discussions center on common pediatric neoplasms, but adult tumors are also addressed -- particularly their unique features and the forces that underlie their unexpected emergence
