Reflecting the latest WHO classification throughout, this new edition incorporates advances in clinicopathologic, biologic and genetic studies. As such, detailed coverage of immunohistochemistry and molecular diagnostics is included for each entity. Soft tissue tumors are broadly defined to include metastatic melanomas, carcinomas, and lymphoid proliferations in soft tissue, enabling the reader to distinguish between easily confused entities. Chapters are richly illustrated throughout with high-quality colour images, depicting both typical histology and variants of each entity.

Written and edited by renowned international leaders in the field, this is an essential guide to all diagnostic modalities in soft tissue pathology.

'Every new topic starts with a bit of basic background on the normal histology relating to the entity. This is exceptionally helpful for someone new to this topic. As a textbook for pathologists wishing to improve their basic knowledge of soft tissue pathology, I would highly recommend Modern Soft Tissue Pathology. As an ST1 with minimal exposure to soft tissue pathology, I have found this book easy to read and understand. Images are extensively and appropriately used. I feel each section is well-rounded and flows nicely. I have been very impressed by the standard of this book.' British Medical Association Programme and Award Winners 2017
