Product Description
A complete reference to the latest understanding of lymphocytic infiltrates The Cutaneous Lymphoid Proliferations provides a complete, authoritative treatment of the clinical features, phenotypes, pathogenesis, histopathology, diagnosis, and treatment of lymphocytic infiltrates of the skin. Incorporating the latest findings from the fields of light microscopy, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry, the book brings readers up to date on the most current thinking in the field. Those readers familiar with the authors' critically acclaimed The Melanocytic Proliferations will find a similar structure and the same attention to detail and quality in this latest reference. The book starts off with a clinical atlas and introduction to the ontogeny and biology of the lymphoid system. Next, the authors explore novel molecular approaches to the diagnosis of cutaneous lymphoid proliferations and benign lymphocytic infiltrates. The remaining chapters concentrate on major inflammatory skin diseases and lymphoproliferative disorders, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia, lupus, adult T cell leukemia, and primary cutaneous Hodgkin's disease. As a reference to lymphocytic infiltrates, this book is unsurpassed. Novice and experienced practitioners alike will gain important insights into the field, including: The role of the immune system in the pathogenesis of cutaneous disease Relationships between therapeutic drugs and cutaneous eruptions Important drug reactions Hundreds of full-color, high-quality clinical and histologic photographs help readers visualize the various infiltrates and their treatments. Having this reference on hand is essential for all dermatologists, dermatopathologists, oncologists, and general pathologists who need a synthesis of the current thinking in the field.

A book to have! by PGY3 Pathology Resident (Livingston, NJ USA)

5 Stars
February 07, 2008
I purchased this book in the middle of my third year and I only wish it was available when I was a first year. I bought it without the benefit of any reviews or opinions because the title sounded so perfect for addressing a lot of the frustrations in this complex and difficult subject matter. This book is really fascinating. The information is given in an organized and comprehensible manner. Delightful, filled with high-quality clinical and histologic photographs and fascinating case vignette summaries. This book is an essential reading for dermatopathology and hematopathology fellows as well as pathology and dermatology residents and practitioners who want to stay up to date. I rate this book "5/5". This book is well worth the expense.
