Difficult Diagnoses in Breast Pathology
By Juan
Palazzo
2011 (1st
ed), 264 pages, $140 list
Difficult
Diagnoses in Breast Pathology" will have a special focus on the difficult
diagnostic problems in breast disease for the surgical pathologist: needle core
biopsy interpretation, diagnosis of precursor lesions and early stage disease,
recognition of neoplastic mimics and other misleading
variants, and other particularly difficult areas including appropriate use of
newer immunohistochemical markers, where appropriate.
Prognostic questions and early staging are of special importance in the
pathologist's collaboration with oncology clinicians and, increasingly, in
informing patients and participating in ongoing management assessment.
Throughout, the emphasis will be on a visual presentation with high-quality
images on the more difficult problems and questions that the pathologist is
likely to have in evaluation of breast disease. In this book, each chapter is
authored by recognized expert in the area. It features: hundreds of
high-quality images; tables and key points in each chapter that summarize the
most important findings; and offers coverage based on addressing in detail the
real-world diagnostic problems the pathologist will face in daily practice.

Thomas: Breast Cancer and its Precursor
Lesions
By Patricia
Thomas
2010 (1st ed), 102 pages, 46 illus,
$139 list
Rather than an exhaustive review
of all the pathologic conditions of the female breast, Breast Cancer and its
Precursor Lesions focuses on the current knowledge, understanding and issues
related to breast cancer and its benign lesions that are associated with an
increased risk for the subsequent development of cancer. This book targets the
language, diagnostic terms and critical communication that must take place
between primary care physicians, breast surgeons, oncologists, and general surgical
pathologists interested in the pathologist’s perspective on these important
diseases. The volume also reviews the current terminology and how to read or
write meaningful pathology reports on these entities, the foils and nuances of
the pathology and implications for management, and up to date issues in
genomics and proteomics of these conditions. The text is succinct, fully
informative, and written in “plain language”. All chapters are presented in a
uniform fashion, and supplemented by high-quality illustrations and tables.
Breast Cancer and its Precursor Lesions will be of great value to pathologists
as well as primary care physicians, breast surgeons, and oncologists for
understanding breast pathology and its implications for management.

The
theory of the sick lobe states that breast carcinoma is a lobar disease
developing most often within a single lobe, meaning that, at an early stage,
breast carcinoma occupies a limited, anatomically well- defined
portion of the breast. This theory unites observed patterns from the genetic,
developmental and morphological perspectives, into an overall concept. Breast
Cancer: A Lobar Disease, presents this hypothesis
and its consequences. The body of evidence, pro and contra, generated in recent
years is presented in this volume. The chapters, all authored by leading
experts in their respective areas, gather evidence
from the perspectives of epidemiology, genetics, radiology, anatomy,
developmental biology, morphology, endoscopy, ultrasound and therapeutics to
give the reader a full picture of recent developments
regarding the sick lobe hypothesis. Tibor Tot, MD PhD
is Head of the Pathology and Clinical Cytology Department at the Central
Hospital of Falun, in Sweden; breast cancer expert of
the National Board
of Health and Welfare in Sweden; and regular Course Director of the breast
pathology program, the official educational program for Swedish residents in
clinical pathology, oncology, radiology and surgery.
