3D Histology Evaluation of Dermatologic Surgery (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Both surgical skill and histological preparation and evaluation are important for successful treatment of various malignant skin tumors. In addition, good knowledge of local patterns of infiltration is required to achieve complete excision. All tumors may show an irregular, often asymmetric, mainly horizontal subclinical infiltration with a wide extent. When deep infiltrations are present, they are also often asymmetric and hard to determine before excision. Until recently these tumor outgrowths have only been detectable using histologic evaluation, but 3D histology is highly sensitive and can detect even very small tumor infiltrations. Very narrow margins can thus be taken for excision, which helps spare healthy skin as only a subsequently targeted re-excision will be necessary to remove all of the asymmetric tumor infiltrations. Therefore the resulting defect will be as small as possible and as large as necessary, and can be adapted to the requirements for aesthetic surgical defect closure.

3D Histology Evaluation of Dermatologic Surgery compares the most commonly used methods in order to give the reader a graphical overview of the current state-of-the-art. The basic principles of various surgical methods and histological workups of the complete 3D tumor margins are described and extensively illustrated to allow better understanding. Furthermore, more complex treatments of larger tumors are also included. Therefore, this book will be vital for all involved in the management of these patients, including practicing and trainee dermatologists, ENT, plastic and facial-surgeons, pathologists and oncologists.

Autorenporträt

Dr Breuningen works in the department of Dermatosurgery (University of Tübingen) Tübingen in which there is a considerable experience in managing patients undergoing these types of procedures. The author can draw from The Tubingen department's 28 years of experience and large number of publications taken from one of the highest numbers of cases around the world. We are treating over 1500 malignant tumors of the skin per year in the department.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:
"This book summarizes the basic principles and surgical methods for removing skin tumors and mapping tumor removal using 3D histology. ... The book is written for practitioners in the specialties of dermatology, dermatological surgery, pathology, and perhaps other surgeons who are trying to remove cutaneous malignancies. ... I have not seen other books that describe 3D mapping in such detail, because this method is usually explained in a chapter of a textbook." (Tara D. Miller, Doody's Book Reviews, October, 2013)
