Offering comprehensive yet practical coverage on diagnosis and differential diagnosis in one of the most challenging areas of surgical pathology, Enzinger and Weiss’s Soft Tissue Tumors, edited by Drs. Andrew L. Folpe and G. Petur Nielsen, continues the tradition of excellence in this fully revised 8th Edition. It provides clear guidance from cover to cover with detailed, well-written, logically organized information on the full spectrum of these complex tumors. Practicing and trainee pathologists will find complete coverage of diagnosis of tumors by microscopy, immunohistochemistry, and molecular genetics, while clinicians who most frequently see these diseases-dermatologists, orthopaedists, and oncologists-will also benefit from a considerable amount of clinically significant information of interest to their field.

Offers practical information on differential diagnosis of tumors of the skeletal muscles, connective tissue, fat, and related structures, helping you accurately diagnose and confidently sign out pathology reports on even the most challenging cases
Provides unsurpassed scope and depth in this complex area with microscopic findings correlated with the latest developments in molecular biology, cytogenetics, and immunohistochemistry, for a comprehensive and integrated approach to evaluation and diagnosis
Comprehensively restructured with numerous new chapters, including chapters on emerging entities, mesenchymal tumors specific to the gastrointestinal tract, soft tissue tumors showing epithelial and myoepithelial differentiation, and round cell sarcomas, among others
Contains abundant algorithms, tables, and graphs to facilitate rapid decision making-many new to this edition
Features nearly 2,000 high-quality images that clearly capture the clinical, macroscopic and microscopic features of benign and malignant conditions, helping you relate these characteristics to their specific classifications
Shares the knowledge and expertise of two new lead editors: Drs. Andrew L. Folpe and G. Petur Nielsen
Utilizes a logical, well-structured format including summary outlines at the beginning of each chapter, a color-coded page design, and a consistent approach to every entity, enabling you to navigate the text quickly, improve turnaround time when diagnosing a specimen, and clearly report on the prognosis and therapeutic management options
An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud

Dr. Folpe attended Amherst College (Amherst, MA) as an undergraduate, the University of Rochester (Rochester, NY) as a medical student, and performed his residency in Anatomic Pathology at the University of Washington Medical Center (Seattle, WA). Dr. Folpe received additional fellowship training in Immunohistochemistry, under the direction of Dr. Allen Gown, and in Soft Tissue Pathology, under the direction of Dr. Sharon Weiss. Dr. Folpe is the author of over 350 medical publications, principally in the areas of soft tissue pathology and diagnostic immunohistochemistry, the co-author of the 6th, 7th and upcoming 8th editions of Enzinger and Weiss' Soft Tissue Tumors, co-author of Series 4 of the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology Fascicle on Soft Tissue Tumors, co-author of the 1st and 2nd editions of Bone and Soft Tissue Pathology: A Volume in the Foundations in Diagnostic Pathology Series, and a member of the consensus conferences and editorial boards for the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th editions of the WHO Classification of Tumors of Soft Tissue and Bone. Dr. Folpe is Co-Chair of the Mayo Clinic Cancer Center Sarcoma Disease Group and Associate Director of the Mayo Clinic Bone and Soft Tissue Pathology Fellowship. He is the Bone and Soft Tissue Associate Editor of Modern Pathology and also serves on the editorial boards of numerous other Pathology journals. Dr. Folpe has lectured widely on various aspects of soft tissue pathology and diagnostic immunohistochemistry. In his spare time, Dr. Folpe enjoys spending time with his family and Australian Shepherd, and is an avid cyclist, hiker, and bread baker. G. Petur Nielsen is Professor of Pathology at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Nielsen is also a pathologist with the Department of Pathology, Director of Bone and Soft Tissue Pathology, and Director of Electron Microscopy Unit at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts.
