This book presents an in-depth systematic review of tumors of bone and soft tissue in children and young adults. Recent advances in diagnostic approaches and molecular studies have significantly increased our understanding of several types of bone and soft tissue tumors in general, and in children and young adults in particular. Through the contributions of several experts in this field, this volume explores the pathology and molecular characteristics of bone and soft tissue tumors in children and young adults. It incorporates salient histological features along with the molecular characteristics of each tumor. It is also illustrated to provide the reader with an unmatched access to the histopathological characteristics of each entity.

This book will greatly benefit all physicians involved in the diagnosis and management of tumors of bone and soft tissue, including pathologists, radiologists, and surgeons. It is also an excellent resource for trainees, interns, and residents in anatomic pathology and surgical oncology.
