About this book

The book discusses a vital problem of diagnostics and treatment of peritoneal malignancies, pseudomyxoma and malignant mesothelioma, which is still insufficiently developed.
Compared to similar, earlier editions, this volume importantly presents cutting-edge approaches and up-to-date diagnostic methods.
The authors place special emphasis on morphological/pathological characteristics of these tumors involving immunodiagnostic techniques, and a chapter on the immunotherapy of mesothelioma and pseudomyxoma will be of special interest to readers.
Fully illustrated, the book will present an algorithm of diagnostics and complex treatment of these tumors.
