Abstract

This chapter considers the clinicopathologic features of borderline and malignant mesothelial pleural neoplasms. They include “well-differentiated papillary mesothelioma,” multicystic mesothelial tumors of borderline biological potential, and malignant mesotheliomas. The specialized morphological features of those lesions are discussed, with emphasis on differential diagnosis with other tumors.
