Gynecologic Cytology (3 ed)

Cytology is an essential part of gynaecologic diagnosis.

This bilingual atlas shows typical cellular pictures of the most important pathologic conditions.

The malignant and premalignant lesions of the squamous epithelium with their inflammatory, degenerative and regenerative alterations, as well as the increasingly important changes of the glandular epithelium are described.

Each colour picture is combined with an explanatory schematic drawing for identification of single cells or cell elements.

This bilingual edition is based on the latest developments in gynaecologic cytology - text and references are completely revised, several figures have been exchanged or supplemented for better explanations, and the new chapter on papilloma virus infection of the female genitals has been added.

However, the proven systematic structure and didactic principle have not been changed.

This bilingual edition has the advantage of giving the English terminology next to the correct German nomenclature, thus alleviating the interpretation of international reports and literature.
