Today, multidisciplinary approaches to treatment are at the heart of cancer care. They offer improved clinical outcomes, new possibilities in patient quality of life, and enable the development of true innovation in individualized treatment. To accurately reflect this modern day approach to cancer care, the content of the 6th edition of Principles and Practice of Gynecologic Oncology was written entirely by surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, and pathologists. New to the editorial team, Dr. Andrew Berchuck has made significant contributions to the understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of ovarian and endometrial cancer in the book’s content. Every chapter of this book has been either completely rewritten or extensively updated to ensure that everyone involved in treating women with gynecologic cancer will have the most comprehensive and up-to-date information on the subject.
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.

A Practical Approach to Cervical Cancer Screening Techniques assists postgraduate trainees and practising gynaecologists in the prevention of cervical carcinoma by guiding them through screening methods for detecting pre-invasive lesions. This book is comprised of 17 chapters which emphasise the need for cervical screening to prevent invasive carcinoma, by diagnosing and treating women with high-grade cervical lesions. The major factors in the occurrence of cervical cancer, such as active metaplasia in the transformation zone, exposure to oncogen, and immune status of the individual are explained in detail. The criteria for a screening test and the various screening techniques available for ...
Volume 3, Cancer, presents the complex patterns of cancer incidence and death around the world and evidence on effective and cost-effective ways to control cancers. The DCP3 evaluation of cancer will indicate where cancer treatment is ineffective and wasteful, and offer alternative cancer care packages that are cost-effective and suited to low-resource settings. Main messages from the volume include: -Quality matters in all aspects of cancer treatment and palliation. -Cancer registries that track incidence, mortality, and survival †“ paired with systems to capture causes of death are important to understanding the national cancer burden and the effect of interventions over time. -Effecti...
This ninetieth volume of the IARC Monographs on the Evaluation of Carcinogenic Risks to Humansconsiders human papillomaviruses (HPVs) which were evaluated by a previous Working Group (IARC, 1995). The monograph in the present volume incorporates new data that have become available during the past decade. HPVs represent the most common infectious agents that are transmitted sexually throughout the world; the major risk factors are behaviors associated with sexual activity. Although most infections are asymptomatic and are cleared within a period of 2 years, genital HPV infection can lead to clinical disease, including anogenital warts, cervical neoplasia, cervical cancer and other anogenital ...
