The premier authority on the pathology of lung cancer brings you this exceptional text. Based on the author's personal experience through forty years of work with more than 25,000 lung cancers, this essential resource is based on an important theme: that carcinomas of the lung have overlapping characteristics, with quantitative rather than qualitative differences. This theme brings together a wealth of crucial data, both published and unpublished. Highly illustrated, the book features more than 450 photographs -- most in full-color -- depicting characteristic growth patterns, and complications such as cavitation and exsanguination. Coverage includes: gross pathology and the defining histopathology, effectively portraying the complications and sequelae of this disease / the neuroendocrine tumors / adenocarcinomas / large cell carcinomas / adenosquamous carcinomas / mesotheliomas, comprising most of the malignant tumors of the lung / benign tumors / and tumor-like lesions, including hamartomas, eosinophilic granulomas, sclerosing hemangiomas and inflammatory pseudotumors.
