Laryngeal tumours are amongst the most common malignancies of the head and neck, often highly invasive and requiring disfiguring surgical resection. Early diagnosis is therefore mandatory. A comprehensive work of reference on the pathology of these tumours with illustrations is presented, which should be useful for pathologists making histological diagnoses. The molecular oncology of these tumours and their clinical features are also covered, making the book a suitable reference source for relative medical surgeons who combine to treat patients with these disorders.
