| Abstract
|
:
|
"Patients with breast and gynecological cancers have to contend with a large number of difficult and challenging issues. To help them to do this it is vital that their carers are fully informed in all areas. This book provides a comprehensive and meaningful picture of women's cancers, including epidemiology, histopathology, normal anatomy and physiology, staging, genetic predisposition, sexual function, fertility, treatment and management, survivorship, and palliative care"--Provided by publisher
