This generously illustrated, user-friendly atlas for both cytopathologists and surgical pathologists is a practical guide to the diagnostically challenging area of cervical cytopathology. Not only does the Atlas feature concise, expert descriptions of the full range of cytopathologies in the gynecological tract, it also presents and contrasts problematic pathologies that can potentially lead to erroneous interpretation. Over 500 carefully chosen, high-resolution color images illustrate crucial aspects of gynecologic tract disease, and selected images of the histopathologic and gross characteristics of the lesions enable morphologic correlation. Additionally, the book features a special chapter authored by a gynecological expert on the colposcopic characteristics of cervical lesions, along with a brief review of the updated ASCCP management guidelines emphasizing a multidisciplinary approach.

Cytology is a unique subspecialty in anatomic pathology, and plays a critical role in the diagnosis of a variety of benign and malignant lesions by using minimally invasive procedures, such as fine needle aspiration, brushing, washing and lavage. Cytology not only provides an accurate diagnosis of the lesion based on the cytomorphological evaluation at cellular level, but also provides material for molecular characterization of a tumor for targeted therapy. In the era of personalized medicine, cytology has continued to grow and evolve as an important diagnostic tool. For example, some types of procedures are routinely used, diagnostic criteria have become more refined, and certain terminology has been changed based on current WHO classifications. Therefore, it is necessary to update our knowledge and terminology in cytology. In this volume, we have retained the quality and the clarity of the series, and like the other volumes, this volume aims to be concise and comprehensive yet clinically relevant to daily practice. Although this volume is written by multiple authors, all chapters follow a similar format: brief introduction of the specific organ/system (including types of specimens and techniques to obtain samples), description of normal findings, and a practice approach to diagnose benign and malignant lesions. In each chapter, the key cytomorphological feature and main differential diagnoses of the lesion are summarized in a concise table. Images in each chapter are instructive and clearly represent findings. Where necessary, we have also illustrated the important ancillary tests, such as flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry and molecular analysis, which are crucial for an accurate diagnosis and targeted therapy. The updated knowledge, including key cytomorphological features, current terminology and molecular diagnostic tests, is the highlight of this volume.

This highly visual set is made up of the Atlas of Gynecologic Cytology and the Atlas of Non-Gynecologic Cytology, both must-have resources from an internationally respected author. Details of each title are as follows: * Atlas of Gynecologic Cytology is an invaluable aid for those who have worked with conventional cervicovaginal smear cytology but now need to familiarize themselves with the appearances seen in liquid-based cytology, which has largely replaced conventional smears for cervical screening. * Covering the non-gynecologic, cytology specimens obtained in routine practice, Atlas of Non-Gynecologic Cytology, examines both normal and pathological processes, with a wealth of common and uncommon cytologic variations. Brought together in one set to provide a comprehensive reference resource, these two titles are undoubtedly highly useful tools for those working in the area.

This book presents the basic concepts for understanding and practicing breast pathology in routine practice. It explains how to tackle the diagnosis, emphasizing diagnostic clues for each entity as well as pitfalls and mimickers. Each chapter has concise, relevant text illustrated by numerous high-quality pictures highlighting the pearls and challenges in the diagnosis of breast lesions. Experts from around the world describe common and rarer conditions affecting the breast. Histology, immunohistochemistry, cytology, radiology and key morphologic criteria are covered. The book includes a chapter dedicated to breast normal histology, which is very important for understanding breast pathology, and a separate chapter for breast radiology, which is essential in understanding and diagnosing the breast lesions especially in a multidisciplinary team. Also, there is a chapter with the latest TNM staging system as well as the recently revised World Health Organization classification of breast tumors. Since in many breast units the cytology is still used to diagnose breast lesions there is a chapter dedicated to this technique. This book is aimed at trainees and practicing pathologists in surgical pathology, particularly those with an interest in breast pathology and those tackling the daily sign-out.
