The gold-standard in veterinary histology textbooks, updated and revised, with new clinical correlations
In the newly revised seventh edition of Dellmann’s Textbook of Veterinary Histology, a team of distinguished veterinary professionals delivers a comprehensive update on the function of cells, tissues, and organs in domestic animal species. It effectively bridges the gap between anatomy and physiology and is filled with high-quality electron micrograph and color micrograph images.
The book is a comprehensive resource on animal tissue structure and function and contains a basic history of veterinary histology, including cytology and microscopic anatomy. A companion website — with approximately 800 high-resolution, color images — rounds out the offering, with new and updated illustrations.
Readers will also find:
- New clinical correlations and clinical application sections in each chapter, making the book even more relevant to students of veterinary histology aspiring to a clinical career
- Comprehensive explorations of cell, tissue, and organ structure and function, updated with the most current knowledge and research
- Practical discussions of histology basics, organized by body region to emphasize comparative species information
Perfect for DVM students taking first-year veterinary histology, Dellmann’s Textbook of Veterinary Histology will also benefit students of veterinary nursing, graduate students, and veterinary researchers and professionals in practice seeking an authoritative reference on the subject.

Preface
The publication of the seventh edition of the Textbook of Veterinary Histology marks nearly half a century since H.‐Dieter Dellmann and Esther M. Brown first brought this book to veterinary students, histology instructors, and other biologists in 1976. Dr Dellmann continued this book through five English editions. The textbook has also been reprinted in Spanish, Japanese, Italian, Indonesian, Portuguese, and Korean editions for international veterinary students. Dr Dellmann's dedication and contribution to veterinary histology has been perpetuated ever since by a varied editorial team, and his name is honored in the title of this edition.
The current version of this textbook has been adapted as a teaching tool not only for veterinary students but also for graduate students and other histologists training in fields related to veterinary medicine. The text and images for this edition have been updated with the most current information available at the time of publication.
With the retirement of Dr Dellmann, Dr J. A. Eurell and Dr B. Frappier contributed as editors for the sixth edition. We are thankful for their outstanding contributions, many of which have been maintained in the seventh edition. We also extend our thanks to the contributors of the sixth edition who did not participate in this edition; their work is greatly appreciated and has informed our updates. The former contributors whose chapters were updated in the seventh edition include: Donald R Adams, Ourania M Andrisani, Alvin Beitz, Martin Bergmann, Vibeke Dantzer, EJ Ehrhart, Jo Ann Eurell, Thomas F Fletcher, Brian L Frappier, Ralph E Hamor, Ronald L Hullinger, Thor Landsverk, Lars‐Inge Larsson, Rudolf Leiser, Johanna Plendl, Janis Priedkalns, David C Van Sickle, Jill W Verlander, and Karl‐Heinz Wrobel. Returning contributors include Charles G Plopper, Charles McLean Press, Joanne Messick, and Nancy A Monteiro‐Riviere. New contributors for the seventh edition include, along with the editors, Elikplimi Asem, Estela Bevillaqua, Ji‐Ming Feng, Carlos Eduardo Alves Fonseca, Karl Klisch, Craig McGowan, Olalekan Ogundele, Cornelia Peterson, and Christopher Premanandan. Their highly diverse expertise has made this project possible. At Purdue University, the editors offer appreciation and thanks to Dr Laurie Jaeger for expert advice, as well as for supporting the editorial team to make the seventh edition a reality.
We recently learned that Dr Dellmann passed away in the Fall of 2023. Dr. Dellmann received his Diploma in Veterinary Medicine from the École Nationale Vétérinaire d’Alfort, France, in 1954. He then completed his postgraduate studies at Ludwig‐Maximilians University in Munich, Germany, in 1961, where he received his PhD in Veterinary Medicine. He taught Veterinary Anatomy and Microscopic Anatomy at Iowa State University for over 21 years. He was named Clarence Harley Covault Distinguished Professor and was also an elected member of the French National Academy of Veterinary Medicine. It is said that Dr Dellmann's favorite line from an aria in Beethoven's Fidelio was, “I have done my duty
