Pathology Case Study: Swelling and Ulceration of the Uvula and Soft Palate

Visitors can view both microscopic and immunohistochemical descriptions, including images, and have the opportunity to diagnose the patient.

It is also a helpful site for educators to introduce or test students of hemapathology.
