Content
Comprehensive, yet concise and clinically oriented, this new edition brings you the very latest advances of every aspect of ocular pathology. From discussions of molecular biology and genetics, to new sections on age-related macular degeneration and complications of refractive surgery, to revised chapters, the latest imaging modalities, and so much more, this 6th edition will surely keep you on top of your field. Complementing the text is a world-renowned collection of common and unusual ocular conditions and a DVD containing valuable educational tools. New to this edition Offers the expertise of a brand-new co-author, Joseph William Sassani, MD, MHA, who brings new insights to the latest pathologic findings. Discusses rapidly evolving subjects, including genetics and molecular biology, and addresses hot topics such as the role of the myocilin/TIGR gene in the development of glaucoma, the classification of orbital neoplasms, and many others to keep you on the cusp of today’s knowledge. Presents a new discussion on the pathobiology of ocular complications of diabetes mellitus, including diabetic macular edema and severity scales, the interventional clinical classification of diabetic retinopathy, and the role of VEGFF and other factors. Provides OCT, UBM, and MRI/CT images of key conditions, offering you a better visual correlation to pathological entities. Features entirely new sections on age-related macular degeneration and complications of refractive surgery to help you avoid complications and make the best informed decisions. Incorporates revisions of all chapters in fast changing fields such as classifications of soft tissue tumors and the modern developments of histopathological terminology and developments. Includes a bonus DVD that contains the entire textbook’s image library—downloadable for your use—and the Aperio System of virtual microscopy that allows you to zoom in and out when viewing the included digitized histopathology slides.

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages
