Clarke-Pearson: Gynecological Cancer Management
By Daniel Clarke-Pearson
2009 (1st
ed), 208 pages, $100 list
Over the past three decades, as the specialty of obstetrics
and gynecology has matured into a broad and diverse group of skills and
disciplines, it has become apparent that there are diagnoses and conditions in
gynecologic oncology where the obstetrician-gynecologist has a level of
uncertainty, or lack of confidence in his ability or knowledge base to
adequately manage the patient and therefore refers the patient to a gynecologic
oncologist. This text portrays the advances in the field and reviews the
current management of a number of gynecologic conditions to give the reader the
confidence needed to deal with these issues.

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.
