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 ofbreast 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.

This book provides a practical guide to the diagnosis of cervical lesions. Chapters detail recent changes to diagnostic criteria and classification and the impacts these developments have on patient management. The anatomy and histology of the cervix are discussed, along with macroscopic and microscopic changes, prognostic and predictive parameters, epidemiological data, and staging systems.Atlas of Diagnostic Pathology of the Cervix: A Case-Based Approach utilizes diagnostic algorithms and highlights to offer readers appropriate management criteria and aims to give trainees, practicing pathologists, and gynecologists a case-based approach to the treatment of cervical lesions.
