What's new in dermatopathology?
Abstract:
This review emphasizes the important work in dermatopathology reported in the past 3 years. In reviewing the recent contributions in the field, four areas appear to have received particular attention: (1) new information concerning the histogenesis of cutaneous tumors based on the dual functional capacities of cells; (2) the Langerhans cell and its role in inflammatory and neoplastic processes; (3) prognostic factors in stage I malignant melanoma; and (4) the use of new immunofluorescent and immunohistochemical technics as diagnostic tools in cutaneous pathology.
