Bone Pathology is the second edition of the book, A Compendium of Skeletal Pathology that published 10 years ago. Similar to the prior edition, this book complements standard pathology texts and blends new but relatively established information on the molecular biology of the bone. Serving as a bench-side companion to the surgical pathologist, this new edition reflects new advances in our understanding of the molecular biology of bone. New chapters on soft-tissuesarcomas and soft-tissue tumors have been added as well as several additionalchapters such as Soft-tissue pathology and Biomechanics. The volume is written by experts who are established in the field of musculoskeletal diseases. Bone Pathology is a combined effort from authors of different specialties including surgeons, pathologists, radiologists and basic scientists all of whom have in common an interest in bone diseases Thoroughly updated and expanded New section on biomechanics Both a bench-side companion and ready reference INDICE: Bone Structure, Development and Bone Biology.- Structure and Function of Joints.- Biomechanics Part A.- Biomechanics Part B.- The Laboratory in Orthopedic Practice.- Genetics and Molecular Biology of Bone and Soft-tissue Tumors.- Grossing of Bone and Soft-tissue (Common Specimens and Procedures).- Radiology of the Musculoskeletal System.- Skeletal Trauma and Common OrthopedicProblems.- Musculoskeletal Infections.- Arthropathies.- The Surgical Pathology of Prosthetic Materials and Allografts.- Metabolic Bone Disease.- Skeletal Dysplasias and Inherited Diseases.- Musculoskeletal Neoplasms, Surgical Aspects.- Musculoskeletal Neoplasms, Medical Aspects and Chemotherapy.- Musculoskeletal Neoplasms, Aspects of Radiation Oncology.- The Surgical Pathology of Bone Tumors.- The Surgical Pathology of Soft-tissue Tumors.
