Non-Neoplastic Diseases of Bones and Joints

This atlas is a histological reference for surgical pathologists not familiar or comfortable with the diagnosis of non-tumorous diseases of bones and joints. One in three physician office visits are due to bone or joint complaints, yet only one in thirty thousand orthopedic patients have a bone tumor. The diagnosis of orthopedic diseases is a complex enterprise requiring cross-specialty cooperation. While contributions from orthopedic surgeons, radiologists, and rheumatologists have been included to provide more clinical relevance to this work, the emphasis is on surgical pathology of bone and joint diseases. The original and comprehensive photographs, illustrations, and tables in this reference enhance clinicopathologic correlation and diagnostic application in a way seldom provided by previous pathology resources.

Order this powerful atlas of nontumor pathology now to take advantage of new discoveries and techniques for diagnosing and treating non-neoplastic diseases of the bones and joints.
