American Registry of Pathology Atlas of Placental Pathology
The placenta is an organ often neglected by surgical pathologists and clinicians alike. Placental diagnoses provide risk assessment for infant prognosis, recurrent risk for future pregnancies, and explanatory findings. There is widespread interest in placental diagnosis for the antenatal determinants of adult disease, inborn errors of metabolism, specific infections, malignancies, and assessing placental function in real time with the ultimate goal of affecting treatment. Due to the difficulties inherent in studying human gestation and gestational pathologies, much of what is known about the relevance of placental pathology is biased toward personal experience and retrospective studies. However, this book presents evidence-based information to the reader. The authors emphasize the need for an educated and directed sampling of the placenta through gross examination which will result in a better and more useful final diagnosis.

American Registry of Pathology Tumors of the Salivary Glands
This book serves as a one-stop, comprehensive reference for the pathology of salivary gland neoplasms, with an emphasis on numerous high-quality, illustrative photomicrographs. The authors incorporated the most cutting-edge genetic data emerging on such tumors, as this information often has a profound impact on their diagnosis and classification. With the quickly evolving nature of salivary gland pathology, this contribution to the Fifth Series is a key update to the previous edition from the Fourth Series, which was published in 2008.

American Registry of Pathology Tumors of the Ovary and Fallopian Tube
The complexity of ovary and fallopian tube pathology is striking, with dozens of tumor types. There is a greater appreciation now of the importance of hereditary cancer syndromes in ovarian and tubal malignancies, as two common autosomal dominant hereditary cancer predisposition syndromes include carcinomas of ovary or fallopian tube. This book is organized following the structure and terminology of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of Female Genital Tumors, 5th edition. It includes some new entities that have been described since that book's publication in 2020 and provides detailed discussion of differential diagnosis, relevant ancillary tests, and strategies to approach diagnosis. In addition, discussions of the underlying biology of these tumors, as it relates to their diagnosis, are also presented. This fascicle provides an opportunity for deeper reading and quiet reflection about the progress that has been made in our understanding of tumors of the ovary since the previous landmark edition was published in 1998, as well as a respect for the numerous challenges that remain. Free digital access available with every print purchase. See inside the book for more details.

American Registry of Pathology Non-Neoplastic Disorders of the Endocrine System
Free digital access available with every print purchase. See inside the book for more details.In endocrine pathology, surgical pathologists often concentrate on neoplasms at the expense of nonneoplastic disease processes. This is unfortunate as nonneoplastic endocrine disorders are many times more common in the population. As in all fields of medicine, nonneo¬plastic endocrine diseases can closely mimic the neoplastic; an awareness of all aspects of pathology underpins routine clinical practice. This Fifth Series Fascicle offers pathologists and clinicians an opportunity to develop an increased understanding of nontumor endocrine pathology in order to inform patient care.

American Registry of Pathology Tumors of the Eye and Ocular Adnexa
There have been numerous significant developments in the diagnosis and treatment of ophthalmic tumors since the last edition of Tumors of the Eye and Ocular Adnexa. This fascicle in the Fifth Series of the AFIP Atlases of Tumor and Non-tumor Pathology includes these developments as well as abundant images to depict ophthalmic pathology. In this richly illustrated volume, the authors emphasize that the pathology of ophthalmic tumors must address not only how to make a correct diagnosis, but also how to guide the ophthalmic surgeon to a treatment plan for the disease while simultaneously preserving a patient's vision.

American Registry of Pathology Non-Neoplastic Diseases of the Central Nervous System
Of the various subspecialty areas in anatomic pathology, neuropathology tends to be one of the least familiar to general pathologists. Most surgical pathologists at institutions with neurosurgical practices gain quick familiarity with the common tumours of the central nervous system. Non-neoplastic diseases of the central nervous system, however, continue to remain a mystery to surgical pathologists, since non-neoplastic diseases of the nervous system represent a wide spectrum of relatively uncommon diseases that are not often biopsied.This volume has been biased toward diseases that may be encountered in surgical pathology practice. Moreover, the authors have tried to illustrate as many entities as possible with surgical material, and have used autopsy brains primarily to illustrate key macroscopic features of some diseases. Readers will find the book of use and comfort as they realise that the brain biopsy in front of them is not from a familiar neoplasm, but from one of the sometimes challenging, and always fascinating, non-neoplastic diseases of the central nervous system.

American Registry of Pathology Tumors of the Bones and Joints
This comprehensive volume includes chapters on bone growth and development, bone tumor imaging, molecular genetics, and all classes of bone and joint tumors. This Fascicle is designed for residents, fellows, and practicing physicians in fields that treat and study patients with bone tumors, including pathology, orthopedics, radiology, medical oncology, and radiation oncology. Along with a wide range of superb illustrations, the authors’ discussions integrate their experience, recent molecular data, and updated information from the World Health Organization Classification of Tumors of Soft Tissue and Bone.

American Registry of Pathology Tumors of the Salivary Glands 9 AFIP Atlas of Tumor Pathology Series 4
Histomorphologic evaluation remains the principal and most useful method for diagnosis of salivary gland tumors and is the emphasis of this edition. A differential diagnosis is included in the discussion of most tumours, and the cytopathologic features of those tumours most commonly encountered in the cytopathology laboratory are discussed. Highly illustrated, mainly in colour.
