Book description

Exhaustively illustrated in color with over 1000 photographs, figures, histopathology slides, and sonographs, this uniquely authoritative atlas provides the clinician with a visual guide to diagnosing congenital anomalies, both common and rare, in every organ system in the human fetus. It covers the full range of embryo and fetal pathology, from point of death, autopsy and ultrasound, through specific syndromes, intrauterine problems, organ and system defects to multiple births and conjoined twins. Gross pathologic findings are correlated with sonographic features in order that the reader may confirm visually the diagnosis of congenital abnormalities for all organ systems. Obstetricians, perinatologists, neonatologists, geneticists, anatomic pathologists, and all practitioners of maternal-fetal medicine will find this atlas an invaluable resource.

Reviews

'This is a superb book, and the modest title of 'Atlas' belies its comprehensive coverage of perinatal pathology. The text is substantial, and through extensive use of summary tables and bullet points offers a didactic overview of the subject rather than a fully referenced scientific text.'

‘This textbook is the best I have seen on the topic of embryonic and fetal pathology. As an atlas, it far surpasses expectations. As a reference book and bench book, it should be on the bookshelf of everyone who has an interest in this area. I highly recommend this book … and found it a pleasure to read.’

'This is a lavishly, beautifully illustrated book including many colour photographs. It is unusual in that it includes chapters dealing both with perinatal pathology and also with an introduction to the practicalities of antenatal ultrasound examination. My assessment is that it will prove most useful to those working, or anyone working in a related field who wishes to gain knowledge of this area. … I would recommend this book as a useful addition to the existing texts because of its unusual approach and the quality of the illustrations.'
