Provides a summary of the clinical features, phenotype, pathogenesis, histopathology, diagnosis, and treatment of lymphocytic infiltrates of the skin. This work begins with a clinical atlas and an introduction to the ontogeny and biology of the lymphoid system. It then focuses on major inflammatory skin diseases and lymphoproliferative disorders.

The "Cutaneous Lymphoid Proliferation: A Comprehensive Textbook of Lymphocytic Infiltrates of the Skin" provides a complete summary of the clinical features, phenotype, pathogenesis, histopathology, diagnosis, and treatment of lymphocytic infiltrates of the skin. It begins with a clinical atlas and introduction to the ontogeny and biology of the lymphoid system. The next section discusses novel molecular approaches to the diagnosis of cutaneous lymphoid proliferation and benign lymphocytic infiltrates. The remaining chapters focus on major inflammatory skin diseases and lymphoproliferative disorders, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia, lupus, adult T cell leukemia, and primary cutaneous Hodgkin's disease. It provides hundreds of full colour, high quality clinical and histologic photographs. It integrates the biology, pathology, clinical features, diagnostic techniques, and therapeutic management of these entities. It elucidates the role of the immune system in the pathogenesis of cutaneous disease. It discusses the relationship between therapeutic drugs and cutaneous eruptions. It covers drug reactions, and reviews insights from light microscopy, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry. It also incorporates useful tables throughout. With its authoritative treatment of both tumour and non tumour entities of the skin, this title is an invaluable resource for all dermatologists, dermatopathologists, oncologists, and general pathologists.
