Book excerpt: This book is intended as a reference manual that will provide the busy clinician with up-to-date information on the diagnosis and treatment of uncommon and rare gynecological cancers. While standard textbooks briefly cover these tumors, this is intended as a more comprehensive yet easy-to-use guide. After opening chapters on epidemiology, pathology, and diagnostic imaging, the full range of infrequently encountered gynecological cancers (ovarian, uterine, cervical, vaginal, and vulval) is presented and discussed with the aid of high-quality illustrations. In each case, detailed attention is paid to both differential diagnosis and current treatment options. The book has been written by an international panel of experts and is the first to gather all the uncommon and rare gynecological cancers together within one volume.

Provides up-to-date clinical guidance on assessment and therapeutic options for patients with rare gynecologic malignancies. Presents information in a templated, easy-to-read format. Each chapter includes an introductory clinical case followed by epidemiology of disease, pathologic assessment, basic science/molecular/translational research, work-up of newly diagnosed disease, staging, treatment of newly diagnosed disease, treatment of recurrent disease, potential therapeutic targets, and a case resolution. Includes diagnostic and treatment algorithms for each form of cancer. Contains numerous anatomical figures, radiographs, photographs, and tables for quick visual reference.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zusammenfassung: Challenging Cases in Gynecologic Surgical Pathology discusses unusual clinical cases and uncommon presentations of usual diagnostic entities. The book is divided into four sections that contain over 14 years of teaching material from major academic institutions and cancer centers. The pathology case presentations are from different anatomical sites of the gynecological tract, including ovary and fallopian tubes, uterine corpus, cervix, and vulva. The chapters within each section contain epithelial, mesenchymal, or germ cell tumors and mimickers of cancer. Each case title has a brief clinical correlation at the end. The sample cases therein may be diagnostically challenging for practicing pathologists in routine practice or relatively recently described entities. The intent of the book is not a complete review of gynecologic pathology. Instead, the focus is on unusual patterns of common gynecologic pathology cases and uncommon tumors of the gynecological tract with their relevant clinical work-up and differential diagnosis. The case illustrations provide a practical approach to diagnosing challenging gynecologic cancers. The aim is to be a valuable resource for practicing general pathologists and pathology trainees who encounter complicated cases in daily practice

This book was released on 2014 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rare gynecologic cancers represent 3.4% of all cancers of women in the US and may disproportionately affect specific demographic groups due to access to healthcare. In California, the gynecologic cancers that meet the NCI criteria of rare cancer are ovarian, cervical, vulvar, vaginal, and other gynecologic cancers. The influence of race/ethnicity and measures of healthcare access on incidence, risk of late stage at diagnosis, and 5-year cancer site-specific survival rates for all rare gynecologic cancers were examined in the large and racially diverse population of the California Cancer Registry from 1988-2009. Factors of healthcare access were measured by SES, health insurance status, and US-born status. We found that the association between healthcare access and rare gynecologic cancer outcomes varied by cancer site, cancer outcome, race/ethnicity and the particular measure of healthcare access. Proportional incidence of HPV-related cancers were increased for women with low SES, especially NH Whites. Private insurance and US birthplace status decreased proportional incidence by race/ethnicity for all rare gynecologic cancer sites. Risk of late stage at diagnosis for HPV-related cancers varied by measures of healthcare access. Race/ethnicity and insurance status were the most important predictors of ovarian cancer late-stage risk while private insurance was associated with lower risk of late stage at diagnosis for other female genital organ cancers. Cervical and ovarian cancer survival were associated with race/ethnicity, SES and insurance status. The risk of death for all rare gynecologic cancers, except other gynecologic cancers, was reduced for women born outside the US.
