This new volume of the Biopsy Interpretation Series is a practical, superbly illustrated guide to the technical and interpretive aspects of superficial skin biopsies. The book first addresses the techniques and methodology of performing a biopsy, and then discusses benign melanocytic tumors, precursors to melanoma, and melanomas. Also included are discussions of precancerous lesions of the epidermis such as actinic keratosis and of fully transformed malignant lesions arising in the skin including basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas.

Part of the popular Biopsy Interpretation Series, Biopsy Interpretation of the Skin: Primary Non-Lymphoid Cutaneous Neoplasia, Second Edition, is a concise, practical resource with a strong focus on diagnosis. It offers guidelines on how and when to biopsy the skin and provides superb coverage of common and uncommon non-lymphoid neoplasms of the skin. Focusing on the daily tasks and needs of the general pathologist, this updated Second Edition is an excellent bench reference and education resource for the interpretation of the most common skin biopsies.

  • Incorporates recent advances in the biology of skin cancer which have led to important biologic therapies for melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma.
