Description
Book SynopsisThis book is a guide to gynaecological pathology with an emphasis on the diagnosis of common lesions.
Beginning with an overview of epidemiology and developmental defects in the female genital tract, each of the following chapters examines a different type of tumour. The book focuses on both benign and malignant lesions, neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions, as well as tumour-like conditions.
Each condition is described in depth, covering aetiology, clinical features, macroscopy, histopathology, immunohistochemistry, molecular pathology, and treatment methods.
The comprehensive text is enhanced by more than 700 clinical and pathological images, illustrations and tables.
