All chapters in this second edition have been revised to include the current knowledge and understanding of disease, such as HPV-related tumors. The addition of bony lesions and odontogenic lesions in this new edition make it more complete and inclusive. I would highly recommend this book as a quick go-to guide for everyday sign-out."

Although many tumors of the upper respiratory tract are squamous cell carcinomas, the varied tissues of this region can give rise to a bewildering array of neoplasms. This text reviews the interpretation of biopsies of neoplasms and neoplasm-like entities arising in the head and neck region, including the ear. It will discuss both neoplastic and non-neoplastic pathology to help make the correct diagnosis and guide patient management.
