Endocrine Pathology: Differential Diagnosis and Molecular Advances, Second Edition provides detailed coverage of endocrine pathology with extensive discussion of the differential diagnosis as well as presentation of molecular pathobiology of the major endocrine organs. Revised and expanded from the first edition, each chapter, written by leaders in their respective field, has been updated with the latest advances that are transforming the field of endocrine pathology. Richly illustrated with color photomicrographs, useful diagrams and line drawings, each chapter includes differential diagnosis of common and uncommon lesions as well as material on molecular developments, with emphasis on the molecular findings that are most helpful in the diagnosis of specific disorders.


Endocrine Pathology: Differential Diagnosis and Molecular Advances, Second Edition, provides a useful and well-organized resource designed not only for the endocrine pathologist and the general surgical pathologist, but also for the clinical endocrinologist and the endocrine surgeon.

From the reviews of the second edition:

“This book integrates molecular biology with histopathology and immunopathology routinely used by surgical pathologists in diagnosing endocrine disorders and tumors. … This is ideal for both academic and general practitioners … . Academic pathologists, those who practice general pathology, and endocrinologists interested in pathology will benefit from the book’s useful information. … This is a technically oriented, comprehensive, intellectual, and well-composed book on endocrine pathology with beautiful illustrations and graphs that is useful to a range of pathologists and endocrinologists.” (Mary M. Henry, Doody’s Review Service, March, 2010)
