Synopsis:

By far the majority of women presenting with a breast complaint will be diagnosed as having a benign rather than malignant condition. Despite this, clinical and research interest has always favoured breast cancer, and few publications have attempted to cover benign breast disorders as an independent entity focusing instead on benign breast disease in relation to breast cancer and none provide the complete and pragmatic coverage found in this text."Hughes, Mansel and Webster's Benign Disorders and Diseases of the Breast" represents the distillation of over 35 years of clinical experience and research in the Cardiff Clinic and is unique in its depth of coverage of the entire spectrum of benign breast complaints. The third edition of this critically acclaimed book provides practical and detailed management guidelines. Relevant investigations are discussed and clear advice is given for the most effective treatment strategies in each condition, including dealing with treatment failures and recurring problems. The underlying pathology and physiology are also discussed from the clinician's viewpoint to help understand clinical presentations and response to treatment.

Review: "Outstanding. I would urge all gynecologists, surgeons, generalists and radiologists to have this book on their shelves and libraries.” JAMA

"Surgeons requiring advice may have difficulty finding a source of enlightenment. They need search no more. The Cardiff team have fielded a world-beater” The Lancet

"This book is useful for any clinicians who treat women-internists, gynecologists and particularly surgeons.” Archives of Surgery

"It is clearly written and richly illustrated with high quality photographs in full colour. .This unique book is wholeheartedly recommended” British Journal of Surgery
