Generously illustrated with over 700 photographs, drawings, histopathology slides, radiographs, and mammographs, this color atlas provides a step-by-step guide to the differential diagnosis and treatment of the most prevalent diseases of the breast. Organized around primary patient complaints, part one covers benign tumors, malignant carcinomas, pain, and various symptoms of the skin and nipple-areola complex. This is followed by a multidisciplinary review of the respective techniques of the clinician, radiologist, pathologist, surgeon, and reconstructive surgeon. Illustrated from the editor's authoritative collection of over 14000 patient records and written by a multidisciplinary team, this photographic atlas provides a guide to proper clinical examination; diagnostic and interventional radiography; diagnostic pathology; surgical biopsy; surgical excision of benign lesions; breast conservation surgery; total, modified radical, and radical mastectomies; and reconstructive surgery. Clinicians will find this guide invaluable in diagnosing and treating the most common cancer affecting women today.
