Preface
All disciplines in the field of surgical pathology are con-
stantly evolving, and female genital tract pathology is
no exception. The last decade has brought remarkable
progress in terms of our understanding of gynecologic
disease and the role of tissue-based morphologic and
molecular testing in its diagnosis. This second edition
of
Gynecologic Pathology,
a volume in the
Foundations in
Diagnostic Pathology
series, incorporates these advances
using a schematic and simplified layout. In keeping with
the highly successful format of the series, information
is presented in both paragraph and bullet-point forms,
and complemented by more than 1150 high-quality pho-
tographs. Each topic contains relevant clinical aspects
including management and prognostic factors. The
pathology information is organized in a systematic fash-
ion: in addition to the key
macroscopic
and
histopatho-
logic features,
emphasis is given to the role of
ancillary
testing
(histochemistry, immunohistochemistry, and/
or molecular diagnostics). As a major element, the sec-
tion of
differential diagnosis
discusses pitfalls and dis-
tinguishing characteristics helpful in the diagnostic
work-up. The information contained in this volume
aims to be practical and applicable to most practice set-
tings. We also incorporate emerging evidence and prac-
tice recommendations that, while still in the process of
being validated and implemented, are likely to become
standard of care in the future. Prime examples of this are
the molecular-based classification of endometrial carci-
noma and the role of molecular testing in the classifica-
tion of uterine sarcomas.
This book is the product of the scholarly work of
experts in the fields of gynecologic pathology, dermato-
pathology, and cytopathology. Each author has not only
extensive knowledge in their areas of practice, but also
great passion for education. Their expertise and dedi-
cation is reflected in the high quality and educational
value of the chapters. As editors, we were honored and
educated by their contributions, for which we are deeply
grateful.
New to this second edition is the expansion to 21
chapters (from 17 in the first edition), including two
new chapters on
non-neoplastic lesions of the cervix
and
cytology in the practice of gynecologic pathology.
We also
cover the role of immunohistochemistry
and
molecular
testing throughout the text and in a chapter fully devoted
to this topic. We hope that the reader, whether a student
or an experienced pathologist, finds in this reference a
simple yet comprehensive tool to navigate through the
practice of gynecologic pathology.
