This volume in the Diagnostic Pathology series is an ideal point-of-care resource for practitioners at all levels of experience and training. Covering the full range of solid organ transplantation (SOT) of the kidney, liver, heart, lung, pancreas, intestine, and more, it provides a current understanding of transplant immunology and pathology to help ensure accurate diagnosis for optimal clinical management. Richly illustrated and easy to use, Diagnostic Pathology: Transplant Pathology, third edition, is a visually stunning, one-stop reference for practicing pathologists, transplant practitioners, and students of organ transplantation.
- Covers all areas of transplant pathology, incorporating the collective knowledge and experience from a team of transplant pathology experts with the latest updates from the 2022 Banff classification
- Groups content by specific organ transplant, including kidney, liver, heart, lung, intestine, pancreas, and vascularized composite allotransplantation
- Features sweeping updates throughout, including new chapters on transplant immunology that cover chronic viral infections and the immune response, immune manipulation and accommodation, and graft-vs.-host disease
- Contains a new chapter on islet cell transplantation and new, detailed information on xenotransplantation-specifically kidney xenograft
- Covers advances in vascularized composite allografts (hands, face, uterus, phallus) transplantation
- Features more than 1,500 superb images, including histology, gross pathology, full-color illustrations, and radiologic images
- Employs consistently templated chapters, bulleted content, key facts, annotated images, and an extensive index for quick, expert reference at the point of care
