Gynecologic Oncology

This updated Fifth Edition provides comprehensive coverage of the biology of gynecologic cancer, the therapeutic modalities available, and the diagnosis and treatment of site-specific malignancies. Because of the importance of multimodality treatment, the site-specific chapters are co-authored by a surgical oncologist, a medical oncologist, a radiation oncologist, and a pathologist. State-of-the-art information on molecular biology, monoclonal antibodies, vaccines, and gene-directed therapies is included throughout the book.

"Clinical Gynecologic Oncology" is the leading reference on diagnosis and treatment of gynecologic malignancies for ob/gyn practitioners and residents. The text is organized by cancer type and size and offers practical aspects of clinical presentation, as well as management options.

The staff at one of the world's leading cancer centers have here collaborated on a practical guide to the procedures involved in gynaecologic oncology, covering the latest developments in both open and minimally invasive surgery.
