This updated second edition of a successful book provides essential, internationally applicable information in the area of bone and joint pathology with emphasis on practical diagnostic aspects, including many illustrations: roentgenograms, CT-scans, MRI, scintigraphies, as well as pictures of gross surgical specimens and microphotographs, immunohistochemical reactions and genomics. Information on histopathological and molecular diagnosis, and basic therapeutic guidelines are provided. This book offers generous coverage of epidemiology, clinical features, radiology, pathology, differential diagnosis, prognosis and treatment, not only for common lesions, but also for those less frequently encountered, including lesions of joints. The content is arranged based on the World Health Organization’s Consensus Classification, with the addition of other lesions not included therein. Tumors and Tumor-Like Lesions of Bone provides day-to-day assistance to general and specialized surgical pathologists, radiologists, orthopedic, head and neck and dental surgeons, oncologists and rheumatologists.
This issue of the Foot & Ankle Clinics focuses exclusively on advances being made in Latin America, in an effort to include more surgeons from Latin America who are major contributors to the literature, and give them an opportunity to share ideas. The issue will cover new techniques and advances from major doctors, academics, and institutions in Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina, and Chile.
Una amplia revisión de la especialidad que incorpora los avances de la Ortopedia y Traumatología de los últimos años y constituye un aporte trascendente para la formación de la materia. La estructura didáctica de sus capítulos facilita el estudio y la consulta, que se complementa con una prolija iconografía en forma de esquemas y figuras. Escrito por numerosos autores, se diría que incluye el who is who de la cirugía ortopédica argentina, a pesar de lo cual el carácter de los capítulos se mantiene uniforme, con temas abordados de modo conciso y sencillo, sin dejar nada esencial en el tintero. No sólo se han actualizado algunos temas que lo requerían, sino que se ha incorporado...
The proceedings of the Eighth Annual Bristol-Myers Squibb/Zimmer Othopaedic Symposium, held in Chicago, November 1993, begin with an analysis of revision hip surgery from a clinical perspective utilizing information from the Swedish Hip Registry, followed by 54 papers in sections devoted to mechanisms of failure (particulates/biological events), bone remodeling, bone grafting and substitutes, diagnostic techniques, clinical evaluation of revision surgery, socioeconomic issues, surgical approaches and cement and component removal, clinical results of revision surgery, acetabular reconstruction, femoral reconstruction, new technologies, massive grafts in femoral reconstruction, and infection.

Cytology evaluates cellular details, and in contrast, histology relates to tissue assessment with rather preserved architecture. During daily cytology practice, we frequently encounter certain situations which are often challenging such as differentiating normal cytology components or non-neoplastic lesions from a neoplastic process, abnormality versus artifact, contaminants from lesional sampling, immunostain expression in unexpected cells, identifying/or characterizing infectious microorganisms and use of special stains. In-depth knowledge about normal tissue cytology, the pattern of immunohistochemical expression in various organs, and recognizing diagnostic pitfalls would help to overcom...
Detection and characterization of bone tumors with imaging remains a big challenge for every radiologist notwithstanding the impressive progress achieved by the introduction of several new imaging modalities. Moreover, new concepts in surgical and oncological treatment of these lesions require from the radiologist appropriate and focused answers to the specifc questions asked by the referring physicians in order to choose the best therapeutic approach for the in- vidual patient. Tis comprehensive textbook describes in detail the possibilities and limits of all moda- ties, including MRI, CT, nuclear medicine and interventional radiological procedures, employed for the modern imaging of tumora...
