Description and Table of Contents
Description
Since the publication of the previous fascicle on this subject, a number of important advances have been made, necessitating the publication of this new atlas. This comes at a time when incidence of testicular cancer in many countries continues to increase and the need for effective therapeutic approaches and accurate pathologic interpretation is of paramount importance. This atlas emphasizes the differential diagnosis of testicular tumors. It begins with a consideration of general aspects followed by a discussion of the histiogenesis of germ cell tumors. Typical seminoma is considered and illustrated in detail, as well as variants such as tubular seminoma, seminoma with cribform patterns, spermatocytic seminoma and spermato-cytic seminoma with sarcoma. Newer diagnostic approaches are discussed as supplemental methods, but the emphasis of this work remains routine light-microscopic interpretation.
