Description

A broad array of pathology is covered and, in order to attain a better understanding of the varied morphology of neoplasms of the adrenal cortex, medulla, and extraadrenal paraganglia, structural aspects of normal anatomy, including hyperplasia, are illustrated. Numerous new illustrations appear in this atlas, and a large number have been replaced or upgraded using high quality transparencies for digital imaging. The overall number of references has been sharply curtailed and newer references have been added, including timely review articles. The contributions of cytology and fine needle aspiration biopsy in diagnosis are emphasized, particularly with respect to adrenal tumors. Some of the benign adrenal (and occasionally extraadrenal) tumors can be diagnosed by cytologic evaluation, thus avoiding unnecessary surgery, and, therefore, some of these lesions may not become surgical specimens. The imaging characteristics of various tumors on computerized tomography (CT) scan and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be important in correlation with the cytologic findings, and in essence may become the gross pathology in some cases. Appropriate attentions is given, therefore, to imaging studies. Emphasis is also placed on the important role of molecular pathology and immunohistochemistry in tumor diagnosis and in some cases may provide valuable information regarding prognosis.
