Miniseries of reviews: gynecological pathology

Author: Sigurd F. Lax

Published in: Virchows Archiv | Issue 6/2018

Excerpt

Virchows Archiv will regularly publish issues with a coordinated set of reviews in areas with important recent developments, but in volume insufficient to make it into a full review issue. This issue contains such a miniseries of three review articles in the area of gynecological pathology, two of which are dealing with novel developments in molecular pathology and histopathology of the uterus while the third addresses the diagnostically challenging subject of benign proliferations of the endometrium. …
