This expert volume in the Diagnostic Pathology series is an excellent point-of-care resource for practitioners at all levels of experience and training. Covering a broad array of entities pathologists are most likely to encounter when diagnosing and treating GU disorders, it incorporates the most recent clinical, pathologic, staging, and molecular knowledge in the field to provide a comprehensive overview of all key issues relevant to today’s practice. Succinctly written, richly illustrated, and easy to use, Diagnostic Pathology: Genitourinary, fourth edition, is a one-stop reference for accurate, complete pathology reports, ideal as a day-to-day reference or as a reliable training resource for both pathologists and urologists.
Covers more than 200 diagnoses of the kidney, bladder, prostate, testis, and penis, including new molecular markers for testing and new content on prognostic (diagnostically relevant, outcome-based) and predictive (how-to-treat and treatment-related) factors
Provides detailed coverage of the rapid changes and continuous advances in GU cancer diagnosis, including updates on cancer research from the multiomic (or whole genome) approach, and the discovery of new cancer biomarkers
Helps pathologists arrive at the correct diagnosis for common and uncommon lesions; identify and consider key differential diagnoses; employ judicious and contemporary ancillary studies; and generate complete, accurate surgical pathology reports using the most recent reporting guidelines
Reflects updates to immunohistochemical information throughout for the kidney, prostate, and bladder; recent details on molecular changes for testicular tumors; and new information on the molecular aspects of tumor pathology that help make knowledge more accessible for those discussing and diagnosing at tumor board meetings
Contains information to help pathologists understand the clinical implications of the problems, pitfalls, and applications included in AJCC cancer staging material
Highlights current classifications of tumors of the bladder, prostate, testis, and paratestis, as well as updated general concepts regarding germ cell tumors, prostate carcinomas, squamous cell carcinomas, and urothelial carcinomas of the renal pelvis, among others
Features a templated, highly formatted design and concise, bulleted text; diagnostic pearls, a Key Facts summary in every chapter; and an extensive index for easy reference
