Abstract: This book has fifty chapters and is devoted to the clinical management of diseases of the breast. Diseases such as carcinomas, tumors, neoplasms, and sarcomas of the breast; Paget's disease of the nipple; and precancerous breast lesions are examined. This includes benign proliferative lesions and carcinoma of the male breast and breast tumors in children. For each disease, details of clinical presentation, mammography, epidemiology, pathology, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis are discussed. Chapters also cover the anatomy and developmental abnormalities of the breast, biological markers of prognosis, pathological effects of therapy, the role of cytology and needle biopsy in disease diagnosis, pathological examination of breast specimens, and problems associated with the transport of pathological materials. The text is illustrated with black-and-white and color micrographs having figure-legends. End-of-chapter references and a subject index are also provided. This volume will be of interest to cancer specialists, pathologists, physicians, and other medical personnel entrusted with the care of patients with breast diseases.
