The dissection of surgical specimens from the upper aero digestive tract is often difficult due to the anatomically complicated nature of this area. Local environment dictates routes of tumour spread and surgical margins at risk and these features differ for various subsites within this part of the body. Moreover, adequate investigation of surgical specimens of the upper aero digestive tract requires knowledge of the various types of surgical procedures used for different areas and should provide data that enable the surgeon to correlate preoperatively performed diagnostic imaging with the macroscopic findings obtained postoperatively. The aim of this book is to provide guidelines for the anatomical dissection of specimens from oral and sinonasal cavities, pharynx and larynx. This is done by illustrations that combine drawings of tumours at various anatomical subsites, details of the respective surgical procedures, the specimens thus obtained, and the way to dissect these specimens as shown by colour photographs of surgical specimens handled in the way schematically outlined. The book will be of benefit for pathologists, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, ENT surgeons and residents in training for these specialties.

Highly recommended!, September 03, 2000

This book is essential for any pathologist handling the complex resection specimens from the head and neck area. It presents the reader with a well thought-out plan to gain the best possible estimate of resection margins, relation to neighbouring structures et cetera. However, I highly recommend it to all head and neck surgeons as well, who are involved in cancer surgery. "Surgical Pathological Anatomy" will provide them with the insight, needed to discuss all pathologic reports from this area.
