MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
While comprehensive descriptions of the various aspects of Graft-versus-Host Disease (GvHD) have already been published, to date there is no monograph on the clinical and diagnostic pathology of this life-threatening disease. This book fills this gap and serves as a reliable guide to the histomorphologic diagnosis of GvHD. It contains a concise description of: the clinical pathology of GvHD; the applicability and limits of immunohistologic methods in the diagnosis of this disease; an instructive guide to the histological diagnosis; and differential diagnostic problems and potential diagnostic pitfalls.
Contents:
1 Introduction.- 2 Occurrence of GvHD.- 3 Pathogenesis of GvHD.- 4 Clinical Manifestations of GvHD.- 5 Histopathological Manifestations of Acute GvHD.- 6 Histopathological Manifestations of Chronic GvHD.- 7 Immunohistological Features of GvHD.- 8 Conclusions.- 9 Methods Used.- References.
