      abstract = {This book utilizes a uniform approach to provide a  framework for the diagnosis of mesenchymal tumors of the  breast while highlighting their mimics. Emphasis is placed  on a practical approach to the morphologic interpretation  and useful ancillary tests while exploring the differential  diagnoses in depth. Given the overall low incidence of  mesenchymal lesions of the breast along with their mimics,  surgical pathologists are not consistently exposed to these  spindle cell lesions. Compounding this problem is the broad  differential that these lesions engender, with entities  ranging from reactive/reparative lesions to poorly  differentiated spindle cell malignancies. Furthering the  challenge, the diagnoses may be complicated by fixation  issues, sampling method, small sample size, lack of  clinical history and prior treatment effects. The goal of  this book is to introduce readers to the spectrum of these  lesions while providing a systematic approach that helps  establish accurate diagnoses that in turn drive appropriate  clinical follow up and treatment. Chapters cover the  spectrum of benign and malignant mesenchymal tumors and  their mimics that are found in the breast in an easy to  read format with richly detailed images to aid in  diagnoses. The text also discusses practical components to  aid in establishing and evaluating the differential  diagnosis. Given how morphologically and clinically diverse  these lesions are, Mesenchymal Tumors of the Breast and  Their Mimics provides a construct for integrating the  varied components that go into establishing a diagnosis for  this challenging aspect of breast pathology.},
