description: Replete with more than 1,400 photomicrographs of exceptional quality -- all presented in a sequence of magnifications progressing from scanning to high -- this new text also is unique in content. It is the only volume extant devoted entirely to neoplasms with apocrine differentiation, and those cutaneous neoplasms are the most numerous adnexal ones and the most varied in morphologic appearance. Criteria for histopathologic diagnosis of every benign and malignant neoplasm with apocrine differentiation are set forth comprehensively, cogently, and lucidly. Using such criteria, readers will not be surprised to learn that eccrine spiradenoma, papillary eccrine adenoma, cylindroma, syringoma, and aggressive digital adenocarcinoma are apocrine, not eccrine, in character.
