Chhieng: Cytology and Surgical Pathology of Gynecologic Neoplasms
By David Chhieng
2010 (1st
ed), 264 illus, 150 pages, $139 list
Cytology
and Surgical Pathology of Gynecologic Neoplasms has
been written to provide a practical reference for practicing pathologists and cytopathologists in a quick and concise fashion. The
primary focus of this book is on gynecological tumors, specifically common ones
and their benign mimics. Emphasis is placed on morphologic recognition,
resolving common diagnostic problems seen in routine practices, and discussion
of current classification of gynecologic malignancies. Special references to
the differential diagnosis and pitfalls of each entity are included. The role
of cytology and its correlation with histology is richly illustrated and
discussed. Also presented is the practical use of ancillary studies such as
molecular diagnostic testing and immunohistochemistry.
With a unique emphasis on the correlation between cytology and surgical
pathology, Cytology and Surgical Pathology of Gynecologic Neoplasms
provides a ready reference for both the practicing pathologist and pathologist
in training in finding quick answers to their diagnostic challenges.
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.
Clement:

Dallenbach-Hellweg: Atlas of Endometrial Histopathology
By Gisela Dallenbach-Hellweg
2010 (3rd ed), 287 illus, 220 pages, $169 list
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.
Dallenbach-Hellweq: Color Atlas of Histopathology of the Cervix
Uteri (Hardcover); November
2005 (2nd edition), 196 pages, $129.

diagnosis of cervical disease emphasizing carcinogenesis, and correlating
morphologic changes with clinical aspects. Instructions of how to obtain and handle tissue samples are
followed by a description of the normal histology, of the action of steroid
hormones on the cervix, and of regeneration and inflammation.
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

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.

enhance pathologic diagnostic accuracy, how pathologists can efficiently convey
their diagnostic opinions to gynecologists, and the way in which a given
diagnosis triggers a cascade of clinical testing and therapy.
