This book comparatively examines the etiopathogenetic, clinical-pathological, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies of the main bone tumors of domestic animals. The book also includes a description of the most significant aspects of macroscopic, microscopic, immunohistochemical, instrumental, diagnostic imaging and molecular biology aspects of spontaneous bone tumors in Veterinary Medicine, with also interspecies comparative aspects, including the human one. Last but not least, the book provides an overview of the new diagnostic and therapeutic frontiers related to the approach to animal bone tumors. The book serves as essential reading for professionals, researchers and students who work or want to tackle three paths in the field of comparative veterinary bone oncology.

Since the third edition of Tumors of Domestic Animals there has been an enormous expansion of our knowledge about the melocular mechanisms of tumor development and the ancillary aids used diagnose neoplasms . The fourth edition condenses this new body of information and presents it in a way that is useful to diagnostic pathologists, residents, veterinarians, and oncologists. The format of the previous editions has been maintained, but the text and the illustrations are substantially changed or entirely different. Readers will be able to find salient clinical information, prevalence data, biological behavior, and most importantly, accurate information about gross and microscopic lesions to help diagnostic pathologists establish an accurate morphological diagnosis. The editor and authors of Tumors of Domestic Animals,all recognized experts in their fields, recognize the need for accurate morpological diagnoses in veterinary patient care, particularly with the numerous treatment modalities now available to oncologists and owners. This landmark reference in veterinary pathology provides the applicable information that clinical veterinarians need and want to make decisions about treatment of the animals in their care.

This is the third edition of the International Histologic Classification of Tumors of Soft Tissues of Domestic Animals. The original was published in 1974 by the World Health Organization and authored by E. Weiss and K. Frese. The second edition was published in 1998 and authored by M. J. Hendrick, E. A. Mahaffey, F. M. Moore, J. H. Vos and E. J. Walder and edited by F. Y. Schulman. Over the last 4 decades it has become clear that many tumor entities are unique for different animal species, and a simple adaptation of the WHO classification of human tumors to animal tumors would not be sufficient to provide an accurate diagnosis and prognosis for tumors in domestic animals. While comparative pathology is still an integral part of veterinary tumor pathology, even entities that are morphologically similar between humans and other animals may have a different immunophenotype, different biological behavior or a different response to various therapies. This third series will, therefore, be titled "Surgical Pathology of Tumors of Domestic Animals" and will now be published by the Davis-Thompson Foundation. The third volume of this series covers tumors of soft tissue. In contrast to humans, soft tissue neoplasms encompass some of the most common neoplastic entities in dogs and cats. Included in this volume are fibrous, adipocytic, vascular and perivascular, striated and smooth muscle, mesothelial, synovial and nerve sheath tumors, as well as extraskeletal chondro-osseous tumors. Tumors of cartilage and bone will be covered in the fourth volume of this series, and round cell neoplasms will be addressed in the volume of this series dedicated to hematopoietic neoplasms. In contrast to previous versions, this volume will also contain information on differential diagnoses and prognosis for each tumor entity as well as cytology. The focus of this series will be on tumors in dogs and cats and, to a lesser degree, horses. Neoplasms in domestic livestock are rare and will only be addressed when unique entities require special mention. Similarly, tumors in ferrets, as the third most common pet, will be included.

This book offers a state-of-the-art, evidence-based reference to all aspects of veterinary cytology. Truly multidisciplinary in its approach, chapters are written by experts in fields ranging from clinical pathology to internal medicine, surgery, ophthalmology, and dermatology, drawing the various specialties together to create a comprehensive picture of cytology's role in diagnosis and treatment of animal disease. Firmly grounded in the primary literature, the book focuses on companion animals, with special chapters for species with fewer publications. Chapters are logically organized by body system, with additional chapters on tumors of particular import and diagnostic decision making. The first two sections of Veterinary Cytology focus on cytology techniques, quality control, and special laboratory techniques. Subsequent sections are organ/tissue-based and reflect what is known about the canine, feline, and equine species. This is followed by chapters on non-traditional species, including exotic companion mammals, rabbits, cattle, camelids, non-human primates, reptiles and birds, amphibians, fish, invertebrates, and sheep and goats. The last section highlights some unique features of the applications of cytology in industry settings. Provides a gold-standard reference to data-driven information about cytologic analysis in companion animal species Brings together authors from a wide range of specialties to present a thorough survey of cytology's use in veterinary medicine Offers broader species coverage and greater depth than any cytology reference currently available Veterinary Cytology is an essential resource for clinical and anatomic pathologists and any specialist in areas using cytology, including veterinary oncologists, criticalists, surgeons, ophthalmologists, dermatologists, and internists.

Expert contributors provide in-depth coverage of the most current information in his or her respective specialty in veterinary oncology. Chemotherapy protocols are included when case studies prove clinical efficacy. Discussion of compassion and supportive care for the management of pain, nutritional needs, and grief includes methods for handling the pet's pain and nutritional complications as well as the pet owner's grief when treatment is not successful. Thoroughly UPDATED chapters cover the most recent changes in the clinical management of melanoma, mast cell tumors, tumors of the skeletal system, tumors of the endocrine system, tumors of the mammary gland, urinary cancers, nervous system cancers, lymphoma, and histiocytic diseases. NEW Clinical Trials and Developmental Therapeutics chapter discusses the various phases of clinical trials as well as current challenges and opportunities in oncology drug development. NEW!
