Benirschke and Kaufmann's Pathology of the Human Placenta has long been
regarded as the gold standard in the field. It is comprehensive and
thorough and contains the detail necessary for those in the
subspecialties of placental, perinatal and pediatric pathology. However,
placentas are relatively common specimens and are not examined primarily
by specialists in the field, but by general pathologists. Thus, there
is a need for a more practical and concise manual that can be used by
pathology trainees and generalists in their daily work. Manual of
Benirschke and Kaufmann's Pathology of the Human Placenta will fill
that need. The Manual is a practical, user-friendly guidebook for the
general pathologist and pathologist in training for everyday, bench-side
use. Organized in 27 chapters, the book will discuss placental
development, general features, approach to the specimen by macroscopic
and microscopic evaluation, all aspects of placental abnormalities and
lesions, disease processes and the placenta, legal aspects of the
placental examination, future directions and much more. The sections
on macroscopic and microscopic evaluations feature quick-reference
tables that allow the reader to identify abnormalities, learn the
situations where they occur, and refer back to the text for in-depth
discussions. Each chapter will end with selected readings from Pathology
of the Human Placenta for more detailed discussions, classic recommended
readings, as well as an up-to-date bibliography of current literature.
The manual features over 444 illustrations, more than 100 of them in
full-color. A must-have for every pathologist and pathology resident.
