Pathology of the Liver

Most histopathologists will be called on to examine specimens from the livers of patients. This text describes the basic mechanisms which operate in the normal and abnormal liver, the pathological and clinical features of disease and their histological appearance. In this third edition, the five editors have drawn together an internationally recognized group of contributors to ensure that every aspect, from basic science to clinical features, is covered. It provides an authoritative, encyclopaedic resource for diagnosis and research and includes new chapters on liver transplantation, HIV and AIDS.
