Challenging Cases in Gynecologic Surgical Pathology discusses unusual clinical cases and uncommon presentations of usual diagnostic entities. The book is divided into four sections that contain over 14 years of teaching material from major academic institutions and cancer centers. The pathology case presentations are from different anatomical sites of the gynecological tract, including ovary and fallopian tubes, uterine corpus, cervix, and vulva. The chapters within each section contain epithelial, mesenchymal, or germ cell tumors and mimickers of cancer. Each case title has a brief clinical correlation at the end. 

The sample cases therein may be diagnostically challenging for practicing pathologists in routine practice or relatively recently described entities. The intent of the book is not a complete review of gynecologic pathology. Instead, the focus is on unusual patterns of common gynecologic pathology cases and uncommon tumors of the gynecological tract with their relevant clinical work-up and differential diagnosis. The case illustrations provide a practical approach to diagnosing challenging gynecologic cancers. The aim is to be a valuable resource for practicing general pathologists and pathology trainees who encounter complicated cases in daily practice.
