USDEach volume in this richly illustrated series, published in association with the Papanicolaou Society of Cytopathology, provides an organ-based approach to the cytological and histological diagnosis of small tissue samples. Benign, pre-malignant and malignant entities are presented in a well-organized and standardized format, with high-resolution color photomicrographs, tables, and lists of key specific morphologic criteria. Example vignettes allow the reader to assimilate the diagnostic principles in a case-based format.
This volume provides comprehensive coverage of both surgical pathology and cytopathology of breast lesions. With a focus on malignant tumors, the full spectrum of inflammatory disorders, benign lesions, and hyperplasias are also covered in detail. Advantages and disadvantages of aspiration and core biopsy are discussed, as well as ancillary testing such as hormonal and molecular markers.
With over 500 printed photomicrographs and a CD-ROM offering all images in a downloadable format, this is an important resource for all anatomic pathologists.
- Bridges cytologic and surgical diagnoses in lesions of the breast
- Richly illustrated with over 500 high-quality colour images and a DVD-ROM containing all images in a downloadable format
- Includes numerous clinical vignettes, offering a valuable case-based approach to diagnosis
Reviews & endorsements
"The book is well written, with good quality images, pertinent key histology and cytology features, and information about pitfalls and differential diagnosis for almost all of the conditions it covers. Several clinical vignettes that appear in the book can be very helpful for pathologists in training. Overall, this is a justifiable addition to the book collections of both practicing surgical and cytopathologists and pathologists in training."
