Eyelid and Conjunctival Tumors (eBook)

 This Atlas gives the complete expert opinion on the diagnostic features of eyelid and conjunctival tumors (benign and malignant): a state-of-the-art guide with numerous images, useful for both dermatologists and ophthalmologists. This invaluable resource, illustrating clinical, histological and re fectance confocal microscopy features, first addresses the normal conditions of the ocular surface, then reviews lesions due to epidermal, melanocytic and adnexal tumors. A final part is devoted to conjunctiva conditions, from normal to malignant conjunctival tumors. The high number of illustrations and their description of many ocular surface lesions with in vivo confocal microscopy make this atlas an essential guide for the practitioners of both specialities. 

Mathilde Kaspi is Ophthalmologist (MD) at the Hospital of Montbrison and at University Hospital of Saint-Etienne. She is the principal author of this innovative work linking  dermatology, ophthalmology, and pathology, focusing on the analysis of in vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) images of various conjunctival and eye lid diseases, and in particular on their agreement with the histopathological diagnosis. As member of French society of Ophthalmologic Plastic Reconstructive Aesthetics, her work is focused on research, medical and surgical treatment of eye and eyelids pathologies and especially tumours.

Elisa Cinotti, PdD, Professor in Dermatology, graduated and did her Dermatology residency at the University of Genoa. From  2012 to 2016 she worked at the University Hospital of Saint-Etienne (France) and from 2016 she is working at the University Hospital of Siena (Italy)  where she is conducting several researches on cutaneous and ocular noninvasive imaging, in particular on Reflectance Confocal Microscopy. She published over 150 peer-reviewed articles, most of them about dermatologic imaging.
