Synopsis

During the 10 years since the last edition of this volume our knowledge on malignant lymphomas, especially on extranodal lymphomas, has increased. This volume is an expanded and completely revised edition, now based on the WHO classification. The parallels to the updated Kiel classification and the REAL classification are indicated. The information is organized in organ-specific chapters, comprising the well-known nodal lymphoma entities as well as all known extranodal lymphomas and the different organ-specific clinico-pathological entities: lymphomas of the spleen, the gastrointestinal tract, the skin, etc. In addition to the morphology, the major immunohistochemical, molecular genetic, and clinical data are included in each chapter.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The Kiel classification of Non-Hodgkin lymphomas is an important tool for every histopathology laboratory! It leads to very exact differential diagnosis by distinguishing the various disease types from each other. In this updated second edition, the clear differentiation of T-cell lymphomas particularly stands out, as do the increased number of illustrations. The section dealing with immunohistochemistry has been completely rewritten by A.C. Feller. He compares the findings of monoclonal antibody investigations with the morphology. The clinical data and contribution on therapy build a bridge to the clinical treatment of malignant lymphoma. Yet throughout, the histological diagnosis and differential diagnosis remain the central focus of the book.
