Description

This step-by-step practical diagnostic guide takes a fresh look at inflammatory skin disorders by focusing on the practicalities of correlating the histopathologic and clinical features, and highlighting useful diagnostic tips and potential pitfalls. Covering a wide range of both common and rare but critically important inflammatory skin disorders, it outlines their clinical and microscopic features, including histopathologic variations. Highlighting the scope and limitations of a skin biopsy, the book actively encourages a closer liaison between the dermatologist and the pathologist, and demonstrates how correlating the clinicopathologic attributes allows for a more meaningful and accurate diagnosis. With over 600 clinical and microscopic images and featuring real-world scenarios and practical tips, Pearls and Pitfalls in Inflammatory Dermatopathology offers a vital new perspective towards the diagnostic approach to inflammatory skin disorders. The book is packaged with a password, giving the user online access to all the text and images.
