Prostatic disease consumes a major portion of health-care resources in most countries today. The aging of the population in western countries, coupled with rapid advances in technology, has caused a tremendous increase both in the number of patients seeking therapy as well as in available options for treatment. In addition, the current media focus on the subject has thrust it to the top of the medical and health economics agenda. An Atlas of Prostatic Diseases, Second Edition aims to bring these highly topical issues into somewhat sharper focus, while providing all of this new information in a concise, easily understood format. This is an updated and expanded new edition of Dr. Roger S. Kirby's beautifully illustrated, internationally acclaimed atlas/text on the prostate and prostatic disease, featuring a key section on diagnosis. With new references and more illustrations as well as a comprehensive index, this second edition contains a large number of superb color photographs with accompanying text that explain the anatomy and embryology of the prostate, innervation and ejaculatory function, and the underlying mechanisms and causes of abnormal prostate growth. The atlas also covers prostatic neoplasia and inflammatory processes, pathology of the prostate, bladder outlet obstruction, benign prostatic hypertrophy, prostate cancer and prostatitis, and the diagnosis of prostatic disorders. In keeping with the book's high standing among experts in this field, the foreword to this new edition is by Dr. Perinchery Narayan of the University of Florida, Gainesville.

Diagnostic and exfoliative cytology has today achieved a status that few could have envisaged 20 years ago. While exfoliative cytology has long been employed in gynecological diagnosis, new and rewarding spheres have now developed in which cytological diagnosis plays an important role. Exfoliative cytology, for example, is widely employed as an aid in the continuous assessment of urinary tract tumors, and aspiration cytology in the diagnosis of thyroid dis eases. This has given rise to a growing demand for pathologists experienced in cytological diagnosis. However, clinicians with an interest in morphology were often the first to adopt these simple and safe methods, being naturally attracted by the chance to avoid conducting biopsy, which, in the last analysis, is nothing less than a surgical operation. In this Atlas of Prostatic Cytology Leistenschneider and Nagel expertly demonstrate what can be achieved when clinicians skilled in morphology take an interest in cytological methods. Not only do they have direct contact with the patient, but they also profit from immediately being in a position to assess the results of their diagnostic procedures by examining the specimen obtained. From the technical point of view aspiration biopsy of the prostate is by no means a simple procedure and the difficulties involved would seem to have been underestimated in the initial phase of enthusiastic acclaim. Consequently it has been not unusual for clinicians and pathologists to be disappointed by the high rate of unsatisfactory samples obtained by this method.
