This is a pocket-sized reference handbook on routine and special laboratory tests and procedures in gynaecologic pathology. Section one covers preparation of tissue speciments, preparation of cytology specimens and special procedures. Section two explains how to handle all the different kinds of surgical speciments in gynaecology. A useful appendix on gynaecologic malignancies makes up half the book. Much of the information is presented in the form of tables and illustrations.
