Fundamentals of Renal Pathology is a compact and up-to-date resource on the basics of renal pathology that will be of particular value for residents and fellows in training in renal pathology, general pathology, and nephrology, but will also serve as a handy reference for the more experienced. This second, revised and updated edition of the book offers an integrated approach based on contributions from established experts in the field. Key diseases are discussed within the context of clinical presentations, with the emphasis on clinicopathological correlation and differential diagnosis. Topics discussed include glomerular diseases with nephrotic or nephritic syndrome presentations; systemic and vascular diseases affecting the kidney, including diseases affecting the renal transplant; tubulointerstitial diseases; and plasma cell dyscrasias and associated diseases. Well-chosen color illustrations and electron micrographs enhance and complement the text.

From the reviews of the second edition:

"It is intended for pathology residents and interested nephrology and transplant nephrology fellows and practitioners. This book successfully covers all the topics in renal pathology. ... It is a valuable contribution to the field of pathology since few books do such an excellent job of introducing renal pathology in a lucid manner. It is a great place to start reading about renal pathology and an excellent go-to book." (Tejashree A. Karnik, Doody´s Book Reviews, May, 2014)
