Koss: Cytology of Tumors of the Urinary Tract

By Leopold Koss

2011 (1st ed), 200 pages, 80 illus, $125 list

This new volume fills the gap in the literature as it will guide urologists and pathologists in the proper utilizatioin of a variety of laboratory methods that are currently available to determine the presence, persistence or progression of tumors of the lower urinary tract. The volume emphasizes cytology of the urinary tract which is preferred over other methods (i.e. biochemical, immunological and cytogenetic) for its accuracy, especially for the important high grade tumors. This volume will appeal to urologists as well as pathologists, cytopathologists and related professions. The illustrations, nearly all in color, stress the key points of the text and enhance basic understanding of urothelial and other tumors of the urinary tract. A few hand drawings may be added, if needed, for clarity. All important topics would be covered in a succinct fashion.

 

Koss: Koss's Cytology of the Urinary Tract with Histopathologic Correlations  

By Leopold Koss

2012 (1st ed), 141 pages, 81 illus, $139 list

Fifteen years have elapsed since the publication of the original book under the same title.  With the passage of time little has changed and the same conceptual mistakes continue to be made in the practice of urinary cytopathology as in the past.  For this reason a much simplified new edition of this book with the application of new processing techniques has been thought to be a worthwhile undertaking .  Numerous new color photographs from the file of the co-editor have replaced old black and white photographs and will hopefully support the brief text for the benefit of patients. This volume will appeal to urologists as well as pathologists, cytopathologists and related professions.
