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.Key PointsComprehensive guide to gynaecological pathology with emphasis on common lesionsCovers different types of tumour, both benign and malignantDiscussed aetiology, clinical features, pathology and treatment methodsIncludes more than 700 clinical and pathological images, illustrations and tables

Exfoliative cytology, which is a quick and simple procedure, is an important alternative to biopsy in certain situations. In exfoliative cytology, cells shed from body surfaces, such as the inside of the mouth, are collected and examined. This technique is useful only for the examination of surface cells and often requires additional cytological analysis to confirm the results (Encyclopaedia Britannica).This book is a comprehensive guide to exfoliative cytopathology presenting 215 real cases supplemented with clinical details and microphotographs. Each case covers a description of the problem, diagnostic criteria and features, differential diagnosis and immunocytochemistry, and treatment options.Divided into eight sections, the book presents cases highlighting cytology in different systems of the body – general, cervical, effusion, respiratory, gastrointestinal tract, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, concluding with a chapter on miscellaneous topics.Cases are presented in multiple choice question format, with detailed answers and suggestions for further reading.Key PointsComprehensive guide to exfoliative cytologyPresents 215 real cases supplemented with clinical details and microphotographsCovers cytology of different systems of the bodyCases presented in multiple choice question format

Cytology refers to a branch of pathology that deals with making diagnoses of diseases and conditions through the examination of tissue samples from the body (MedicineNet.com).Immunocytochemistry is a laboratory method that uses antibodies to check for certain antigens (markers) in a sample of cells. The antibodies are usually linked to an enzyme or a fluorescent dye. After the antibodies bind to the antigen in the cell sample, the enzyme or dye is activated, and the antigen can then be seen under a microscope. Immunocytochemistry is used to help diagnose diseases, such as cancer. It may also be used to help tell the difference between different types of cancer (National Cancer Institute).This book is a comprehensive guide to the techniques and application of immunocytochemistry in cytology.Divided into two parts, the first section discusses basic principles and preparation, techniques and quality control, and automated immune staining.Section Two covers diagnostic applications of immunocytochemistry for many different types of tumour.The text is highly illustrated with microphotographs, tables and boxes to assist learning and interpretation of findings for accurate diagnosis.Key pointsComprehensive guide to techniques and application of immunocytochemistry in cytologyProvides thorough understanding of basic principles and methodsCovers diagnostic applications for many different types of tumourHighly illustrated with microphotographs, tables and boxes
