In each case, detailed attention is paid to both differential diagnosis and current treatment options. The closing chapter is devoted to biobanking as well as patient engagement. The book has been written and updated by an international panel of experts and it will benefit all healthcare professionals in diagnosing and treating uncommon and rare gynecological cancers.
