More about the book
This volume reviews the molecular pathology of genital papillomaviruses and related neoplasms, emphasizing the relevance of molecular biology to pathologic diagnosis and clinical management. The book presents a detailed account of HPV-related neoplasms and the factors influencing their origin, development, recurrence, and therapy. A review of the molecular biology of papillomaviruses is followed by descriptions of the techniques for detecting these viruses. The authors then examine the epidemiology, pathogenesis and natural history of HPV-related enoplasia and define the significance of latent or occult HPV infection. Subsequent chapters focus on HPV-related lesions of the cervix, vulva, and penis, HPV, HPV-related invasive genital cancers and HPV infections in paediatric patients. The concluding chapter formulates guidelines for determining the appropriate management strategy for HPV-related genital disease.
