Download or read book The Pathology and Surgical Treatment of Tumors Classic Reprint written by Nicholas Senn and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 772 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pathology and Surgical Treatment of Tumors The classification of tumors in this work is in accord with this theory of the origin of tumors. The microbic origin of tumors is briefly disposed of, as it has not been established by any convincing experimental investigations or clinical observations. Should future research demonstrate a direct causative relationship between certain as yet unknown bacteria and the growth of some of the tumors, such tumors would have to be eliminated from this group of pathological products and be classified with the granulomata. The first part of this treatise is devoted to a general consideration of tumors, and it is this part which is intended more especially for the use of students. Following the section on Classification, each class of tumors is considered separately, beginning with benign epithelial tumors and terminating with sarcoma, to which is appended a section on Retention - cysts. It will be observed that by following this course each tumor is brought to the notice of the reader three different times. Repetitions like these cannot fail in permanently impressing the sub ject upon the memory of the reader. It has been deemed advisable to discuss benign tumors first, as they do not deviate so far from the normal type of tissue-growth as do malignant tumors of the Same germinal layer.

Download or read book Surgery of Spinal Cord Tumors Based on Anatomy written by Chun Kee Chung and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-20 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes and illustrates an approach to surgery for spinal cord tumors that is based on a refined concept of anatomic compartmentalization. The aim of this approach is to enable maximum preservation of spinal cord function through confinement of the surgical work to the involved compartment or compartments. Importantly, this involvement differs according to tumor type, and the classification favored by the author takes this fully into account. After introductory chapters on epidemiology and pathology, the anatomy of the spinal cord relevant to surgery for spinal cord tumors is discussed in detail and the proposed classification is clearly explained. The surgical approach to each of the identified anatomic compartments is then described, with attention to the roles of intraoperative mapping techniques, diffusion tensor imaging, and electrophysiologic studies in ensuring that spinal cord functions are spared. Examples of the author’s experience when applying the proposed approach are presented. The book is meant for neurosurgeons at all levels of experience.

Download or read book Modern Soft Tissue Pathology written by Markku Miettinen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-06-14 with total page 1117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprehensively covers modern soft tissue pathology and includes both tumors and non-neoplastic entities. Soft tissues make up a large bulk of the human body, and they are susceptible to a wide range of diseases. Many soft-tissue tumors are biologically very aggressive, and the chance of them metastasizing to vital organs is quite high. In recent years, the outlook for soft-tissue cancers has brightened dramatically due to the increased accuracy of the pathologist's tools. All methods of diagnosis are covered here, with an emphasis on the newest immunoassays and other genetic, molecular, and immunologic diagnostic modalities. This book's systematic description of benign and malignant primary soft tissue tumors with didactic, comprehensive panels of illustrations allows the reader to formulate a complete understanding of the morphology of tumor entities at one glance. The book covers both the most common tumor entities and more unusual diseases using more than 1,500 color images, making it a resource for beginning and senior pathologists.

Download or read book Preoperative Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy written by Joseph Ragaz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite recent advances in adjuvant therapies of cancer, the regi mens of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy treatment which are presently available fail to cure the majority of cancer patients. Pre operative (neoadjuvant) chemotherapy represents a new approach in drug scheduling, based on sound theoretical, pharmacokinetic, and experimental principles. The preoperative timing of chemotherapy before definitive sur gery is not a minor change in the therapy of cancer. To be successful, large numbers of practitioners and their patients must participate. Substantial alterations of many aspects of the present management of cancer will have to follow. Therefore, before such therapy can be fully and routinely implemented, results of the novel treatment and its rationale have to be carefully evaluated. In preoperative treatment, other features will likely gain impor tance. For the first time, clinicians have a chance to follow the in vivo response of the tumor exposed to preoperative chemotherapy. The subsequent histological assessment of the tumor sample may likely become an important prognostic guide, permitting more re fined individual approaches to the planning of postoperative adju vant treatment. The value of such a treatment strategy can already be appreciated in the clinical setting, as seen from the therapy of osteosarcoma. Furthermore, preoperative chemotherapy might render previously inoperable tumors operable and hence resectable with a curative intention. The preoperative reduction of tumor bulk may also effectively decrease the need for more radical operations, permitting a more uniform adoption of conservative surgery.

Download or read book Diagnostic Pediatric Surgical Pathology E Book written by Neil Sebire and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2009-01-12 with total page 843 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many tomes available detailing the histopathological features of both general surgical pathology entities and organ specific pathologies. In addition, several texts present aspects of developmental, fetal and placental pathology. However, for the specialist paediatric pathologist with a significant paediatric surgical specimen workload, and for the practising general surgical pathologist faced with reporting paediatric surgical specimens, although information regarding many of the specific entities affecting childhood is available in the former texts, such information requires searching of many disjointed books.
