Overview

No other book covers as extensively the pathology of the bone marrow in children. It provides a wide background for the understanding of bone marrow disease in children and its difference from that of the adult population. It illustrates the morphology of the peripheral blood, bone marrow aspirate and bone marrow biopsy. It is useful for the diagnosis of pediatric disorders in the bone marrow as a guide for pediatric pathologists, hematologists, oncologists and medical technologists or any physician involved in the diagnosis of pediatric bone marrow disorders.

Reviews

From the reviews: The author has succeeded in developing a text atlas that provides a guide to the diagnosis of the common and unusual paediatric haematologic conditions, as well as of non-haematologic disorders that affect the bone marrow. The book is well written, concise and easy to understand. ... This book is a most valuable text atlas for paediatric pathologists, paediatric haematologists and all those involved in the diagnosis of pediatric bone marrow disorders.
