Description
"Pathology of the Bladder", a new volume in the "Major Problems in Pathology" series, represents a comprehensive monograph on the pathology of the urinary bladder together with its associated tissue in both genders. It explores the contemporary understanding of the complex embryological reorganization occurring early in the intrauterine life of the developing human and continuing expansion of molecular diagnostics extending through the full range of clinical and pathologic findings encountered in practice. It defines their diagnostic features and criteria, and presents effective strategies for solving diagnostic challenges.
