Full Description
This textbook addresses all the common and less often encountered pediatric and adolescent gynecology (PAG) problems in daily practice, both in the ambulatory as well as in the surgical setting, and is closely aligned to what generalists in obstetrics & gynecology as well as other primary care providers will want to know when dealing with a pediatric or adolescent gynecology patient. The new edition has been revised to provide the most pertinent current changes in law, practice, classification, and management. Supplementary Material in an online Resource Center consists of educational and procedural videos; guidance on establishing a PAG clinical and educational program; and sample MCQs with answers based on the chapters.
