Objectives of Fundamentals of Surgical Pathology
• To give the reporting surgical pathologist a comprehensive knowledge of the anatomic pathology in disease, the salient microscopic features, immunohistochemistry as an aid in diagnostic pathology, and essentials of delivering the format of reporting to the clinician.
• To place before all surgical pathologists the practical difficulties in the reporting of lesions with the help of the author's vast experience in surgical pathology in dealing with "Hands-on Bench Problems" encountered routinely.
Highlights
• Gross and lucid descriptions of lesions in pathology (both simple and complex).
• Diagnostic and salient microscopic features essential in arriving at a diagnosis.
• Details on differential diagnosis in each lesion and ability to differentiate one from the other in the gray zone areas.
• Importance of immunohistochemistry as an aid in diagnosis-it is a correlation in the context of morphology and not at face value of a marker being positive or negative.
• Synoptic reporting and the importance of a planned format in reporting-emphasis on point-wise completion, e.g. resection margin involvement, grade, and stage of tumors in reports.
• Caters to common and complex routine reporting in the Indian subcontinent.
