Dallenbach-Hellwag: Histopathology of the Endometrium  

By Gisela Dallenbach-Hellwag

2010 (3rd ed), 359 pages, 149 illus, $169 list

The prime purpose of this atlas is to help the pathologist find, classify and differentially diagnose the changes he is observing. Information on the daily changes during the menstrual cycle and how to date them is essential for recognizing changes caused by abnormal endogenic and iatrogenic hormonal stimuli in functional endometrial disturbances. To provide their patients with the proper hormonal therapy, gynecologists cannot rely on blood samples only because of the constantly fluctuating hormonal levels. A precise functional diagnosis of the endometrial biopsy is the most accurate and best means for assessing hormonal action. Numerous microphotographs explain in detail how to recognize the normal and pathological changes that can develop in the endometrium. The subject of endometritis and the complex endometrial neoplasms and their precursors, with their differential diagnosis as well as their clinical prognosis are covered in detail. To complete the endometrial histopathology, gestational changes are reviewed and illustrated in the last chapter.

 

Deligdisch: Early Pathologic Diagnosis of Gynecologic Cancer Including A Clinician's View  

By Liane Deligdisch

2008 (1st ed), 312 pages, $88 list

The high morbidity and mortality due to gynecologic cancer calls for much-needed efforts to provide an early diagnosis. Using novel approaches and concepts applied to the precursors of gynecological malignancies and their early carcinogenesis, the clinical-pathologic correlations of the disease are highlighted in this book. Presented in a concise manner, the book stands out from existing publications in its description of histopathological changes of the female genital tract that precede the development of cancer. It also describes the updated clinical and biological correlations of gynecologic cancer, as well as the early and often silent stages of the cancer. In addition, essential data from the literature on recent scientific progress in the field of gynecologic cancer is discussed, including original research work carried out by the authors.
