This comprehensive text on the morphology of bone and bone  marrow biopsies describes the features that are likely to be  encountered in trephine biopsies in various pathologic conditions. Its  coverage reflects important advances in surgical trephine biopsy  technique, particularly the development of improved methods of plastic  embedding of tissue. These methods, pioneered by one of the authors of  this book, have made it possible to prepare semi-thin and undecalcified  sections of bone marrow that reveal cytological detail previously  unobtainable.  The book systematically covers the diagnosis of bone and  bone marrow histology, with emphasis on findings in iliac crest  biopsies. After describing the normal histology of the bone and bone  marrow, the authors detail the features of various pathologic  conditions. Coverage encompasses the wide range of disorders in  hematology, oncology, internal medicine, and osteology for which  investigation by bone marrow biopsy is indicated. In addition, the  authors consider the uses of bone and bone marrow biopsy for exploring  the pathogenesis of cancer metastases, the stimulus of cytotoxicity,  and other fundamental aspects of cellular biology. Numerous  high-quality black-and-white and color illustrations enhance and  clarify the text, and an appendix gives full details of biopsy  procedures and histological staining and sectioning methods.
