Recenzje

"This book covers neoplastic and tumor-like lesions of the liver and biliary tree. ... The intended audience is primarily clinicians and pathologists (as well as trainees in pathology), with an emphasis on integrating these two perspectives. Additionally, the book could be a useful resource for researchers in these areas. ... This book has a great deal of pertinent information, especially on hepatocellular carcinoma and its variants, which is useful for pathologists desiring details about these tumors." (Chelsea M. Styles, Doody's Book Reviews, October, 2017)
