Full Description
This second edition has been fully revised to provide practising clinicians and trainees with the most recent advances in the field of operative obstetrics and gynaecology.
Divided into four sections, the book provides in depth coverage of general principles of surgery, followed by chapters on surgery for specific disorders in obstetrics, and then gynaecology. The final section examines recent advances including laser therapy and robotic surgery. Each topic describes preoperative and postoperative care, as well as the actual procedure.
Associated topics such as anaesthesia, operating theatre requirements, management of infection, and blood transfusions are also discussed in detail.
