The sixth edition of this classic reference text presents the Mayo Clinic pathology and radiology experience with 10,165 cases of bone lesions. Compiled by the world-renowned pathology giant K. Krishnan Unni, MBBS, now an Emeritus Consultant at the Mayo Clinic, and his widely respected colleague, Carrie Inwards, MD, Associate Professor of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, this latest addition to the series continues in the tradition of compiling statistics and representative examples of bone tumors from the Mayo Clinic files. It is both complete and detailed. This edition contains information on cases through 2003, adding ten more years of cases to those presented in the fifth edition. As always, the illustrations are outstanding, with beautiful color pictures of both the gross tumor specimens and the numerous detailed histologic sections. Appreciated additions to the current edition include updated illustrations, additional computerized tomographic and magnetic resonance images, some additional information regarding immunohistochemical staining and cytogenetics within specific tumor chapters, and a more detailed introductory chapter in which the Mayo Clinic perspective on grading, staging, and specimen handling is discussed.
