PrefaceFollowing our first publication in the Karger seriesMonographs in Clinical Cytology (vol. 17), which wasdevoted to endometrial adenocarcinoma, we have spent thelast 2 years to preparing this second volume, GlandularLesions of the Female Genital Tract. We have been supportedin this by series editor Dr. Svante Orell and KargerPublishers. The subject is an area in which we have wideexperience and, on this occasion, we have been honored towelcome contributions from 12 international experts in thecytopathology of glandular lesions. Their writings cover thewide spectrum of this challenging subject.Genital glandular lesions, both benign and malignant,are an attractive area of cytopathology. Malignant lesions ofthe endocervix and endometrium are becoming more commonall the world, compared to squamous cell carcinoma.In this volume we present discussions of in situ and invasiveendocervical adenocarcinoma, endometrial adenocarcinomaand endometrial hyperplasias.Ovarian lesions focusing data obtained from intraoperativestudies are considered. Other areas of the genital tract,such as the vulva and the fallopian tube, which are less commonand thus have seen fewer publications, are also presented.The impact of the Bethesda System and basic andancillary techniques in the study of glandular lesions completeour monograph.We hope that this monograph will be useful tocytopathologists, pathologists, cytotechnologists and to studentsof these specialities, as it deals with the most commonareas of their daily work.AcknowledgementsOur gratitude goes to Dr. Svante Orell and to Mr. Thomas Noldfor their stimulating discussions and help in the preparation ofthis book. Thanks also to the contributors and to the staff of theInstituto Jiménez-Ayala, with special mention to PalomaFernandez Rueda for her dedicated and efficient secretarial work,and to senior cytotechnologist Concha Chinchilla.Matías Jiménez-Ayala, FIAC.
