Atlas of Exfoliative Cytopathology with Histopathologic Correlations is a comprehensive reference for interpreting body cavity fluid, respiratory, and gastrointestinal exfoliative cytopathology specimens. Generously illustrated and user-friendly, this Atlas guides the reader through common and unusual non-gynecologic and non-urinary exfoliative specimens to detect neoplastic and non-neoplastic disease. Over 500 high-resolution color images demonstrate the important cytomorphological features and pitfalls encountered in exfoliative specimens. The book provides detailed descriptions for entities encompassing variations of benign serous lesions, peritoneal, pericardial and pleural fluids, cerebrospinal fluid, bronchial brushings and washings, normal and induced sputum, gastric exfoliative specimens, and anal Pap tests. Additionally, selected images demonstrating histopathologic characteristics of the lesions for morphologic correlation will appeal to cytopathologists and surgical pathologists alike. Written by experts from The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Atlas of Exfoliative Cytopathology with Histopathologic Correlations is an invaluable resource for any pathologist looking to improve diagnostic skills and patient outcomes using various exfoliative techniques. Key Features: Contains over 500 outstanding color illustrations Includes cytologic variations of effusions, brushings, washings, and smears from non-gynecologic and non-urinary sites. Provides clear descriptions of entities and practical diagnostic guidance

This edition stresses not just the diagnostic cytological features of the various conditions encountered, but also the diagnostic pitfalls and the grey areas between so as to enable the reader to give more evidence-based reports. In recognition of their rapid expansion, there are new chapters on recent technological developments and on the cytodiagnosis of childhood tumours. A special section on the importance of multidisciplinary team meetings that include the cytopathologist as a core member of the team has also been included at the end of each chapter. As active members of this team, cytopathologists can define their role in the management pathway and thus bring the patient and the microscope together as never before.

Exfoliative cytology, which is a quick and simple procedure, is an important alternative to biopsy in certain situations. In exfoliative cytology, cells shed from body surfaces, such as the inside of the mouth, are collected and examined. This technique is useful only for the examination of surface cells and often requires additional cytological analysis to confirm the results (Encyclopaedia Britannica). This book is a comprehensive guide to exfoliative cytopathology presenting 215 real cases supplemented with clinical details and microphotographs. Each case covers a description of the problem, diagnostic criteria and features, differential diagnosis and immunocytochemistry, and treatment options. Divided into eight sections, the book presents cases highlighting cytology in different systems of the body – general, cervical, effusion, respiratory, gastrointestinal tract, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, concluding with a chapter on miscellaneous topics. Cases are presented in multiple choice question format, with detailed answers and suggestions for further reading.
