Orthopaedic Pathology

Ideal for orthopaedic, pathology, and radiology residents and practitioners, the updated third edition of Orthopaedic Pathology is a comprehensive, practical guide to diagnosing musculoskeletal disorders, offering details on the pathologic and radiologic characteristics of all bone and joint diseases. Highlighted by more than 1,700 high-quality illustrations, it focuses on helping you reach an accurate diagnosis for virtually any orthopaedic disorder you’re likely to encounter, including cysts, arthritis, synovial lesions, fibrous lesions, metastatic cancer, metabolic bone disease such as osteoporosis and Paget’s disease, fractures, osteomyelitis, tumors and tumor-like lesions and developmental bone disorders. A separate section on soft-tissue pathology discusses meniscal injuries, bursa, ligaments, and tendons.

Orthopaedic Pathology, 5th Edition, by Peter G. Bullough, MB, ChB, presents a unique, lavishly illustrated account of the pathology of arthritic disorders, metabolic disturbances, and soft tissue and bone tumors. Nearly 2,000 high-quality pathologic slides, diagnostic images, and gross specimens-side-by-side-depict the appearance of a wide range of conditions and correlate orthopaedic pathology to clinical practice for greater diagnostic accuracy. It’s the ideal resource for the orthopaedic surgeon and radiologist as well as the trainee and practicing pathologist. Provides extensive coverage of arthritic disorders, metabolic disturbances, soft tissue tumors, bone tumors, and rare disorders-not just tumors, which most books emphasize-for guidance on the most commonly seen conditions. Uses nearly 2000 high-quality illustrations-including pathology, histology, radiologic imaging, and schematic line diagrams-that present a clear visual correlation between pathology and clinical images to aid in diagnosis. Includes a chapter on imaging techniques, interpretation, and strategies that provides a foundation of knowledge in radiology. Features brief text, including bulleted lists of key points and information, that makes reference quick and learning easy. Offers updated coverage of immunohistochemistry and molecular pathology-along with examples from the latest imaging and pathologic techniques-to help you recognize the presentation of disorders using these approaches. Features discussions of some rare conditions, equipping you to diagnose even the least common orthopaedic disorders.

This illustrated textbook is an essential and invaluable guide to young clinicians and researchers of Trauma and Orthopaedics, reporting all classification systems which are currently utilised in the clinical setting. It includes classifications relevant to both Elective Orthopaedic Practice and Orthopaedic Trauma. Clear graphic illustrations accompany the description of all different classification schemes in a comprehensive manner, together with a structured presentation of existing clinical evidence. In this manner each chapter of the different anatomical sites and pathologies assists the decision making of the readers regarding treatment strategy as well as informed consent of their patients. It is envisaged that this textbook will be a point of reference not only to the surgeons in training (residents) but also to senior surgeons and academic clinicians.

Apply a systematic pattern recognition approach to achieve more accurate diagnoses of both neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases of the musculoskeletal system. Andrea Deyrup, MD, PhD and Gene P. Siegal, MD, PhD use a practical, pattern-based organization that helps you efficiently and confidently evaluate even the most challenging histologic specimens. Consult this title on your favorite e-reader. Compare specimens to commonly seen patterns, categorize them accordingly, and turn directly to in-depth diagnostic guidance using the unique, pattern-based Visual Index at the beginning of the book. Includes guidance on both pathologic and radiologic diagnostic patterns. Assess key pathologic and clinical aspects of neoplastic and non-neoplastic conditions with 800 high-quality, full-color images that help you evaluate and interpret both common and rare diseases. Find complete coverage of the musculoskeletal system from Normal Bone Anatomy through discussions of all major classifications of disease, both neoplastic and non-neoplastic. Progress logically from the histologic pattern, through the appropriate workup, around the pitfalls, and to the best diagnosis.

This profusely-illustrated atlas depicts all types of bone tumors and tumor-like conditions. Focuses on differential diagnostic aspects of each tumor or lesion. Also illustrates variances in histologies and clinicopathologic correlations for each lesion. Concise text presents diagnostic criteria, pathological features, differential diagnostic radiographic features, diagnostic histologic features, special stains and immunohistologic techniques, biologic behavior and follow-up, and treatment and prognosis for each lesion.

The New Edition of this beautifully illustrated atlas has been completely revised and updated to depict the microscopic and macroscopic features of all types of tumours and tumour-like conditions of the bones and joints-both neoplastic and non-neoplastic. Over 900 illustrations and concise descriptions focus on the differential diagnostic aspects of each tumour or lesion and highlight variances in histologies and clinicopathological correlations. Presents concise descriptions of diagnostic criteria - pathological features - differential diagnostic radiologic features - diagnostic histolgical features - special stains and immunohistochemical techniques - biological behavior and follow-up - and treatment and prognosis for each lesion. Offers radiologic correlations for all entities. Features brand-new coverage of non-neoplastic conditions of the bones and joints, including osteoarthritis rheumatoid arthritis osteoporosis osteomyelitis gout fibrous dysplasia and ankylosing spondylitis Presents completely updated coverage of neoplastic conditions, such as osteoblastoma osteochondroma chondrosarcomas fibrosarcoma and Ewing's sarcoma Includes hundreds of excellent photomicrographs-many new to this edition

Bone Pathology is the second edition of the book, A Compendium of Skeletal Pathology that published 10 years ago. Similar to the prior edition, this book complements standard pathology texts and blends new but relatively established information on the molecular biology of the bone. Serving as a bench-side companion to the surgical pathologist, this new edition reflects new advances in our understanding of the molecular biology of bone. New chapters on soft-tissue sarcomas and soft-tissue tumors have been added as well as several additional chapters such as Soft-tissue pathology and Biomechanics. The volume is written by experts who are established in the field of musculoskeletal diseases. Bone Pathology is a combined effort from authors of different specialties including surgeons, pathologists, radiologists and basic scientists all of whom have in common an interest in bone diseases. It will be of great value to surgical pathology residents as well as practicing pathologists, skeletal radiologists, orthopedic surgeons and medical students.
