Download or read book Surgical Pathology of Tumors of Domestic Animals written by Paola Roccabianca and published by . This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the third edition of the International Histologic Classification of Tumors of Soft Tissues of Domestic Animals. The original was published in 1974 by the World Health Organization and authored by E. Weiss and K. Frese. The second edition was published in 1998 and authored by M. J. Hendrick, E. A. Mahaffey, F. M. Moore, J. H. Vos and E. J. Walder and edited by F. Y. Schulman. Over the last 4 decades it has become clear that many tumor entities are unique for different animal species, and a simple adaptation of the WHO classification of human tumors to animal tumors would not be sufficient to provide an accurate diagnosis and prognosis for tumors in domestic animals. While comparative pathology is still an integral part of veterinary tumor pathology, even entities that are morphologically similar between humans and other animals may have a different immunophenotype, different biological behavior or a different response to various therapies. This third series will, therefore, be titled "Surgical Pathology of Tumors of Domestic Animals" and will now be published by the Davis-Thompson Foundation. The third volume of this series covers tumors of soft tissue. In contrast to humans, soft tissue neoplasms encompass some of the most common neoplastic entities in dogs and cats. Included in this volume are fibrous, adipocytic, vascular and perivascular, striated and smooth muscle, mesothelial, synovial and nerve sheath tumors, as well as extraskeletal chondro-osseous tumors. Tumors of cartilage and bone will be covered in the fourth volume of this series, and round cell neoplasms will be addressed in the volume of this series dedicated to hematopoietic neoplasms. In contrast to previous versions, this volume will also contain information on differential diagnoses and prognosis for each tumor entity as well as cytology. The focus of this series will be on tumors in dogs and cats and, to a lesser degree, horses. Neoplasms in domestic livestock are rare and will only be addressed when unique entities require special mention. Similarly, tumors in ferrets, as the third most common pet, will be included.

Download or read book Veterinary Cytology written by Leslie C. Sharkey and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 1024 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a state-of-the-art, evidence-based reference to all aspects of veterinary cytology. Truly multidisciplinary in its approach, chapters are written by experts in fields ranging from clinical pathology to internal medicine, surgery, ophthalmology, and dermatology, drawing the various specialties together to create a comprehensive picture of cytology's role in diagnosis and treatment of animal disease. Firmly grounded in the primary literature, the book focuses on companion animals, with special chapters for species with fewer publications. Chapters are logically organized by body system, with additional chapters on tumors of particular import and diagnostic decision making. The first two sections of Veterinary Cytology focus on cytology techniques, quality control, and special laboratory techniques. Subsequent sections are organ/tissue-based and reflect what is known about the canine, feline, and equine species. This is followed by chapters on non-traditional species, including exotic companion mammals, rabbits, cattle, camelids, non-human primates, reptiles and birds, amphibians, fish, invertebrates, and sheep and goats. The last section highlights some unique features of the applications of cytology in industry settings. Provides a gold-standard reference to data-driven information about cytologic analysis in companion animal species Brings together authors from a wide range of specialties to present a thorough survey of cytology's use in veterinary medicine Offers broader species coverage and greater depth than any cytology reference currently available Veterinary Cytology is an essential resource for clinical and anatomic pathologists and any specialist in areas using cytology, including veterinary oncologists, criticalists, surgeons, ophthalmologists, dermatologists, and internists.
