The Atlas of Oral and Maxillofacial Histopathology is a quick, user-friendly diagnostic reference text on Oral and Maxillofacial Histopathology for general pathologists, dermatopathologists, and ENT pathologists regarding oral and maxillofacial disorders. Comprised of six compact chapters, the Atlas contains the most common as well as unusual entities that are submitted by surgeons working in this anatomic area. The defining diagnostic histopathology is presented by means of carefully selected images and captions, in addition to a brief outline of the demographic information and histopathologic differential diagnoses. Pitfall problems in diagnosis are also discussed and resolved. A free companion web site features interactive text and an image bank.

Review:

"Today’s head and neck and/or oral pathologist is fortunate to have a number of fantastic texts to choose from, and it is therefore reasonable to ask what any new entry to the group brings to the table. With that in mind, I believe that Dr Lumerman, with editorial assistance from Dr Robert Bowe, has succeeded in creating a concise, practical, and visually attractive atlas that would be a welcome addition to any pathologist’s library.”

"Whereas head and neck pathology books may neglect oral and maxillofacial lesions and oral pathology books often have too few histopathology images, Atlas of Oral and Maxillofacial Histopathology fills the need for a well-illustrated, userfriendly, histopathology-based oral pathology book. I have already recommended this atlas to residents rotating through our head and neck pathology consultation service, and I believe it would be valuable for any trainee or practicing pathologist who evaluates oral and maxillofacial specimens.”
