? Over 1,350 illustrations in 350 innovative composite figures designed to teach general pathologists the cytologic approach and cytologists the histologic basis for cytologic criteria? CD-ROM containing high resolution composite images that can be enlarged to the size of computer screen and detailed legends with clinical presentation, cytologic clues with different stains from low to high magnification as well as the mistakes made and lessons learned? Pathologic entities are arranged in the current classifications used by surgical pathologists so that they can translate their experience in histopathology to cytopathology? New classifications of tumors based on advances in cytogenetic and molecular evidence and all new illustrated cases from G C H Yang's collection? A new chapter on gynecologic tumors has been added. The chapter on malignant lymphoma has been completely rewritten to incorporate current WHO classifications. New tumors discovered in the past 16 years and new classifications of adrenal, kidney, liver and pancreatic tumors have been addedThe objective of this book is to share authors' combined 30 years' experience in the fine-needle aspiration biopsy diagnosis of organs beneath the diaphragm with general pathologists. Starting from the basics, this book progresses to in-depth cytomorphologic analysis with histologic and immunohistochemical confirmation of specific entities. Cytohistological correlation is emphasized by using composite images from either resected tumor or the cell block whenever possible. In addition, ultrastructural basis of cytological features is emphasized. Both cytology and electron microscopy classify tumors by meticulously analyzing the cytoplasmic features and cell junctions of scanty sample. Every histopathology entity should have a counterpart in cytopathology, since both derive from the same entity undergoing the same pathological process. The difference is in the artifacts; thus an attempt was made to explain the artifacts of aspiration cytology so that histopathologists may understand the cytologic approach and learn to interpret aspiration cytology with confidence.

After historical introduction, the aspiration technique and imaging modalities are described. Thereafter, the use of aspiration cytology in the diagnosis and mainly in the sta- ging of urologic cancers is on still not well known appli- cations of the procedure in the staging of some organs (bladder, adrenals, penis, testis and secondary ureteral strictures) are reported.

This practical text and color atlas tells the story of 350 patients, covering a wide range of thyroid lesions with high quality composite images that correlate cytology with histology, and radiology with pathology. Each case includes clinical presentation and final pathology. Concise, easy-to-read text enables readers to quickly find the information they need for accurate diagnosis. 'Lookalike' lesions are grouped together so the subtle cytological differences can be appreciated. The author's practical approach explains mistakes made and lessons learned, so diagnostic pitfalls can be avoided. Logarithmic triage diagrams are provided, as well as over 2000 printed photomicrographs and a CD-ROM offering images in downloadable format. Written by a leading cytopathologist who has performed onsite assessment for over 10,000 ultrasound-guided thyroid fine needle aspirations, this is an important resource for all healthcare professionals dealing with thyroid patients, including cytopathologists, surgical pathologists, cytotechnologists, sonographers, radiologists, endocrinologists and surgeons.
