Pathology of Solid Tumors in Children
Thomas Stocker

This illustrated volume deals with the diagnosis of childhood tumours, mainly from a pathologist's viewpoint, although it does also consider clinical features, treatment and longterm outcomes. While tumours in infants and children have always been recognized as different from those of adults, it has only been in the last two decades that concerted investigations into the uniqueness of these tumours has been undertaken. This book covers recent advances. Details of the classic histological features of the common and not so common paediatric tumours are given, as are the immunohistochemical features that are important in the differential diagnosis of tumours with similar histological patterns. Although the main emphasis is pathological, there is also full discussion of clinical features, including epidemiology, treatment and prognosis. This book should be of interest to pathologists, paediatric oncologists, surgeons, paediatricians.
