Description
This book is a comprehensive guide to rare tumors and tumor-like conditions of the urinary system and male genital organs. It comprises five chapters, devoted to the kidney, bladder, prostate, testes, and penis. Each chapter begins with a brief overview of “common” tumors and tumor-like conditions and with a section on the classification of both common and rare entities. The main clinical, pathological, immunohistochemical, and molecular findings for each rare tumor or tumor-like condition are then described and discussed. Significant characteristics are also documented by representative high-quality illustrations, with emphasis on those aspects of most relevance to differential diagnosis. In addition, prognostic features are fully covered. Urological Pathology: Rare Tumors and Tumor-Like Conditions will be ideal source of core information and practical guidance for residents, fellows, pathologists, urologists, and oncologists.
Reviews
This is an excellent textbook on multimodality approaches for cancers of head and neck, brain, GI Tract, Lung, cervix, ovary, prostate, bones, etc. Comparison between surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, hyperthermia, and combined modalities are considered carefully. Accelerators, proton beam, Conformal, brachytherapy, Intensity modulated treatments are compared to the older literature. The conjoint combined approach with chemo is discussed. Diagnosis, imaging, epidemiology, treatment, outcomes, and complications are compared with the strict surgical approaches. I recommend this book for radiation therapists and oncologists.
