Pathology for the Surgeon

This innovative text illustrates the important relationship between the surgical and pathological disciplines, and serves as a useful reference on modern pathology for the practicing surgeon or resident. Emphasis in each chapter is directed to what disease processes are most likely to be encountered, what the surgeon can reasonably expect from the pathologist intra-operatively, and how the surgeon can be sure that adequate samples have been obtained to ultimately achieve the diagnostic/therapeutic aims of the procedure.
