"The chapters have been reorganised to present the most common lesions first, making the text easier to read and providing a thorough explanation of the clinical and radiographic features, pathogenesis, histopathology, and treatment of each cyst. An additional chapter has been added on the pathogenesis of cysts, which provides an overview of the phases of cyst formation and the interface between cysts and tumours. Variants are discussed only where they may affect diagnosis and management...Overall, the fifth edition updates bring welcome changes which make it more appealing and relevant to all levels of student, trainees, and specialists."
