From the reviews:“This comprehensive review of ovarian tumor pathology covers everything from frozen section interpretation to clinical correlations. … It provides current information on everything from molecular pathogenesis to patient outcomes. It would be useful to any pathologist, oncologist, or clinical geneticist who deals with ovarian neoplasms. … This is a very useful reference as it provides detailed information that is not available in many other books. As a pathology resident, I find the amount of clinical correlation extremely useful.” (Roger Vernon Dietz, Doody’s Review Service, February, 2012)“A good overview of the pathology of ovarian tumours and is a useful practical guide to develop an approach to diagnosis of ovarian tumours. … The book is easy to read and is very well illustrated, with a large number of microscopic pictures, including immunohistochemistry and some macroscopic images as well. … The chapters are not too long and the layout makes it easy to find the needed information. Each chapter is followed by helpful bibliography, including both classic and recent articles.” (Mona A. El-Bahrawy, The Bulletin of the Royal College of Pathologists, Issue 158, April, 2012)
