Les cancers gynécologiques pelviens regroupent différentes entités à l'épidémiologie et à la prise en charge très différentes. Cet ouvrage d'une grande actualité, rédigé par les meilleurs spécialistes de la discipline,apporte un éclairage exhaustif, théorique et technique, sur les principes thérapeutiques de la cancérologie pelvienne en traitements médicaux, en radiothérapie et en chirurgie. Dans un premier temps, les auteurs abordent l'anatomie pathologique « utile au chirurgien », l'épidémiologie descriptive et analytique et les aspects pré et per-thérapeutiques : biologie, imagerie, génétique et stadification qui en découle. Dans un deuxième temps, les aspects thérapeutiques généraux et spécifiques sont explicités (radiothérapie, traitements médicaux, chirurgie). Enfin, les cas particuliers tels que les tumeurs rares et à malignité limitée ou les tumeurs lors de la grossesse ainsi que les complications et les éventuels problèmes post-opératoires tels que douleur, sexualité ou surveillance post-thérapeutique sont développés pour offrir au praticien toutes les réponses nécessaires à une prise en charge optimale. Cet ouvrage pluridisciplinaire associant différents spécialistes (gynécologue, oncologue, chirurgien, anatomopathologiste et spécialiste de l'imagerie médicale), s'adresse à la fois aux praticiens en cours de spécialisation (internes et assistants), aux praticiens non chirurgicaux et aux chirurgiens confirmés amenés à prendre en charge des femmes atteintes de cancers gynécologiques pelviens.

Die Zunahme unserer Kenntnisse über die molekularen Mechanismen u.a. von Wachstums-, Entwicklungs- und Differenzierungsprozessen hat die Grundlagen der molekularen Medizin innerhalb weniger Jahre erheblich erweitert. In besonderer Weise hat die Aufklärung der Basensequenz des menschlichen Genoms zu dieser Entwicklung beigetragen und die Bildung neuer Forschungsfelder wie Genomics und Proteomics ausgelöst. Die vorliegende Neuauflage der molekular- und zellbiologischen Grundlagen der Molekularen Medizin will diesen Fortschritt begleiten. In 24 Kapiteln wird der aktuelle Kenntnisstand der Molekularen Medizin von ausgewiesenen Experten dargestellt. Dieser Band sei all denen empfohlen, die als Biowissenschaftler - seien es Mediziner, Biologen, Biochemiker oder Biophysiker - an diesem Fortschritt teilhaben wollen.

Our recent understanding of the cellular and molecular defects and the regulation of the apoptotic signalling pathways has resulted in rationally designed anticancer strategies and the development of novel agents that regulates apoptosis. A comprehensive review of all apoptotic-related anticancer therapies is not the purpose of this book. However, in the volume of this book with 11 chapters, we have described a number of novel apoptotic regulators that have shown promising value and also great feasibility for cancer treatment. These novel agents either occur naturally or are chemically synthesized. While we are excited about the discovery and development of these novel apoptotic regulators as potential anticancer agents, a degree of caution should be always borne in mind when interpreting the success of preclinical pro-apoptotic candidates since potential problems inevitably lie ahead. These problems usually include target specificity, unanticipated toxicity, compound stability, formulation issues, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles. Nevertheless, we believe that this collection of 11 chapters by established leaders in the area of apoptosis will be of great interest to not only academics working in the field of cancer research and apoptosis but also pharmaceutical and pharmacological industries that. We are looking forward to the further development to push these potential agents toward clinical stage.

This invaluable manual provides a practical overview of the field of gynecologic oncology. Focusing on clinical aspects of the specialty, it provides hands-on guidance for those caring for patients with ovarian, cervical, uterine, and lower genital tract cancers. It describes the current epidemiology, pathophysiology, presentation, diagnosis, and multimodality management of the most common gynecologic malignancies. Chapters are also devoted to radiation and chemotherapy, as well as symptom management. The book is designed for quick reference.

Since the first edition was published in 1982, Treatment of Cancer has become a standard text for postgraduate physicians in the UK and beyond, providing all information necessary for modern cancer management in one comprehensive but accessible volume. By inviting experts from a number of disciplines to share their knowledge, the editors have succeeded in delivering a truly integrated approach to the care of the patient with cancer.This fifth edition adopts the successful structure of previous editions, whilst being thoroughly revised and updated, and with several completely new chapters, covering important topics such as drug development, cancer prevention, and economics of cancer care, as well as treatments such as radioimmunotherapy, biological therapies and antibody therapy.Part One considers the scientific basis and fundamental principles underlying cancer treatment and examines the likely developments that will occur over the next decade at the leading edge of oncology. Part Two is divided into two sections; the first covering general issues of cancer management, including planning techniques, concomitent chemoradiotherapy, surgical oncology and palliative care; and the second using a system-based approach to cover the clinical aspects and management plans for the whole spectrum of malignant disease.Treatment of Cancer surpasses other oncology texts in condensing the essential information for exemplary cancer care into one readable and accessible guide, and will be an invaluable addition to the bookshelves of the busy oncologist in training or in practice.
