TL;DR: The fourth edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of tumours of the central nervous system, published in 2007, lists several new entities, including angiocentric glioma, papillary glioneuronal tumour, rosette-forming glioneurs tumour of the fourth ventricle, Papillary tumourof the pineal region, pituicytoma and spindle cell oncocytoma of the adenohypophysis.

Steven H. Swerdlow,Elias Campo,Stefano Pileri,Nancy L. Harris,Harald Stein,Reiner Siebert,Ranjana H. Advani,Michele Ghielmini,Gilles Salles,Andrew D. Zelenetz,Elaine S. Jaffe +10 more
TL;DR: The revision clarifies the diagnosis and management of lesions at the very early stages of lymphomagenesis, refines the diagnostic criteria for some entities, details the expanding genetic/molecular landscape of numerous lymphoid neoplasms and their clinical correlates, and refers to investigations leading to more targeted therapeutic strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
The 2008 revision of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of myeloid neoplasms and acute leukemia: rationale and important changes
James W. Vardiman,Juergen Thiele,Daniel A. Arber,Richard D. Brunning,Michael J. Borowitz,Anna Porwit,Nancy L. Harris,Michelle M. Le Beau,Eva Hellström-Lindberg,Ayalew Tefferi,Clara D. Bloomfield +10 more
TL;DR: The classification of myeloid neoplasms and acute leukemia is highlighted with the aim of familiarizing hematologists, clinical scientists, and hematopathologists not only with the major changes in the classification but also with the rationale for those changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
WHO-EORTC classification for cutaneous lymphomas.
Rein Willemze,Elaine S. Jaffe,Günter Burg,Lorenzo Cerroni,Emilio Berti,Steven H. Swerdlow,Elisabeth Ralfkiaer,Sergio Chimenti,José Luis Diaz-Perez,Lyn M. Duncan,Florent Grange,Nancy L.

TL;DR: The characteristic features of the different primary cutaneous lymphomas and other hematologic neoplasms frequently presenting in the skin are described, and differences with the previous classification schemes are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breast cancer metastasis: markers and models
TL;DR: New molecular technologies, such as DNA microarrays, support the idea that metastatic capacity might be an inherent feature of breast tumours and have important implications for prognosis predicition and the understanding of metastasis.

Pathology and genetics of tumors of soft tissue and bone
TL;DR: This list includes tumours of undefined neoplastic nature, which are of uncertain differentiation Bone Tumours, Ewing sarcoma/Primitive neuroedtodermal tumour, Myogenic, lipogenic, neural and epithelial tumours, and others.
Journal ArticleDOI
An approach for the treatment of penile carcinoma
TL;DR: Preliminary bilateral SLN biopsy is recommended to be followed by inguinofemoroiliac dissection when biopsy of the SLN is positive for metastatic disease, and no further sugical therapy is immediately indicated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The function of the vertebral veins and their rôle in the spread of metastases
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the role of the vertebral veins in normal physiology and found that the distribution of these paradoxic metastases is not at all that of the nerve sheaths of the area as suggested by Warren et al.

TL;DR: An effort to develop a standardized classification system for neck dissection was undertaken and the final product was published in the ARCHIVES 1 and as a monograph 2 by the AAO-HNS in 1991.
