Vascular pathology is essentially based on a transverse, the main basic lesions, this book provides precise multi-organ approach to pathology.

However, the vascular Throughout this book, the lesions are precisely system is widely distributed in all tissues; it is modelled described with identification of the various recognized very early during organogenesis by haemodynamic syndromes and discussion of the main established factors, it possesses a remarkable reactivity and pathophysiological interpretations, together with a plasticity, and it is involved in a large number of complete bibliography. pathological processes. General pathologists are often poorly equipped to interpret morphological features We hope this book, based on the authors' medical and encountered during histological examination and to scientific knowledge, has the success it deserves. We integrate these findings into a rational approach. would like to thank them for giving us a very well documented book, which will be useful to both This book by Doctor Phat N.
