Description
Today, multidisciplinary approaches to treatment are at the heart of cancer care. They offer improved clinical
outcomes, new possibilities in patient quality of life, and enable the development of true innovation in individualized
treatment.
To accurately reflect this modern day approach to cancer care, the content of the 6th edition of Principles and
Practice of Gynecologic Oncology was written entirely
by surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, and pathologists. New to the editorial team, Dr. Andrew
Berchuck has made significant contributions to the understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of ovarian and
endometrial cancer in the book뭩 content.
Every chapter of this book has been either completely rewritten or extensively updated to ensure that everyone involved
in treating women with gynecologic cancer will have the most comprehensive and up-to-date information on the subject.
Traditionally available as a printed textbook, now it comes with a completely revamped digital experience, powered by
Inkling!
FEATURES:
?4-color layout with over 550 illustrations
