Written by experts in the field, this textbook provides the most comprehensive coverage of the specific attributes of pseudoneoplastic lesions in order to optimize their pathological diagnosis and clinical management. Unrivaled by other texts, this is the first text to cover the entire spectrum of lesions, focusing on benign, reactive proliferations that may simulate neoplasms in all organ sites. The book details the clinical, conventional morphologic, and specialized immunohistochemical/electron microscopic features of such lesions. The broad scope of this text not only focuses on the fibroinflammatory conditions that are usually considered as pseudoneoplastic, but also examines malformative, reactive, and hamartomatous proliferations that may mimic true neoplasms in a variety of organs. The text is organized by anatomic region and is complemented by full-color illustrations
