An extensive resource for analyzing specimens related to gastrointestinal, respiratory, and body cavity fluid exfoliative cytopathology is the Atlas of Exfoliative Cytopathology with Histopathologic Correlations. This Atlas, which is well illustrated and easy to use, leads the reader through a variety of common and uncommon non-gynecologic and non-urinary exfoliative specimens to help identify both neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases.

More than five hundred color high-resolution pictures highlight the key cytomorphological characteristics and potential problems in exfoliative specimens. For objects that include different forms of benign serous lesions, peritoneal, pericardial, and pleural fluids, cerebrospinal fluid, bronchial brushings and washings, natural and induced sputum, gastric exfoliative specimens, and anal Pap tests, the book offers comprehensive descriptions. Both surgical pathologists and cytopathologists will find interest in certain photos that show the histopathologic features of the lesions for morphologic correlation.
