"La 24a edizione di Williams Ostetricia è stata ampiamente e strategicamente riorganizzata. In primo luogo, avendo come obiettivo i professionisti impegnati "sul campo", continuiamo a presentare i principi base dell'ostetricia - l'anatomia materna e la fisiologia, la cura preconcezionale e prenatale, il travaglio, il parto e il puerperio - passando attraverso una dissertazione dettagliata delle complicanze ostetriche che si verificano in caso di parto pretermine, emorragie, ipertensione e così via. Ancora una volta, poniamo l'accento sull'analisi delle evidenze scientifiche dell'ostetricia clinica, con particolare attenzione ai principi biochimici e fisiologici della riproduzione femminile. Inoltre, come nelle edizioni precedenti, le evidenze scientifiche si connettono fortemente alle evidenze emerse dalla pratica clinica. La presente struttura, così com'è stata riorganizzata, permette di porre una maggiore attenzione sul feto inteso come paziente attraverso una più ampia copertura della diagnosi fetale e della terapia. Inoltre, tutti i cambiamenti apportati al manuale sono accompagnati da più di cento nuove immagini ecografiche e di risonanza magnetica raffiguranti l'anatomia normale del feto e le più comuni anomalie fetali. Infine, per dare rilievo al polo materno nell'ambito della medicina materno-fetale, il manuale fornisce un approfondimento dettagliato del gran numero di disturbi medici e chirurgici che possono complicare la gravidanza. Al fine di raggiungere gli obiettivi prefissati, il testo è stato integrato con più di tremila nuovi riferimenti bibliografici aggiornati al 2014. È altresì curato l'aspetto grafico, attraverso l'introduzione di circa novecento illustrazioni, molte delle quali a colori, che includono ecografie, immagini di risonanza magnetica, fotografie e grafici. La maggior parte del lavoro originale è stato realizzato dai nostri stessi grafici. In questa edizione, come nelle precedenti, sono state incluse linee guida aggiornate provenienti dalle più prestigiose organizzazioni professionali e accademiche, tra le quali l'American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, la Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine, i National Institutes of Health, i Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Molti dei dati esposti sono stati presentati e sintetizzati attraverso un centinaio di tabelle originali in cui le informazioni sono state organizzate in un formato pratico per la lettura e per l'applicazione. Inoltre, al fine di proporre una guida ai medici, sono stati inseriti numerosi algoritmi diagnostici e di gestione. Se da una parte sono state citate numerose fonti basate sull'evidenza per gli schemi diagnostico-terapeutici codificati, dall'altra è stata anche inclusa la nostra esperienza tratta dalla pratica clinica. Pur riconoscendo infatti l'importanza di fornire

Hypertensive disorders remain one the major causes of maternal and fetal morbidity and death. It is also a leading cause of preterm birth now known to be a risk factor in remote cardiovascular disease. Despite this, the hypertensive disorders remain marginally studied, and their management is commonly controversial. Chesley's Hypertensive Disorders in Pregnancy remains one of the beacons to guide this field, recognized for its uniqueness and utility. The Third Edition continues this tradition, focusing on prediction, prevention, and management for clinicians, and is an essential reference text for clinical and basic investigators alike. Differing from other texts devoted to preeclampsia, it covers the whole gamut of high blood pressure, not just preeclampsia. NEW TO THE THIRD EDITION:*

This is the only gynecology resource that combines a full-color text and a procedural atlas - revised and updated. Part medical text, part surgical atlas, "Williams Gynecology" is written by the renowned team of ob-gyn clinicians at Dallas' Parkland Hospital who are responsible for the landmark "Williams Obstetrics". The new edition of "Williams Gynecology" maintains the consistent tone, leading-edge clinical insights, and quality illustrations of the successful first edition, while expanding and refreshing its content to keep pace with the most recent developments in this dynamic field. The many important topics covered in "Williams Gynecology" are evidence-based, yet the book is specifically designed as a practical quick-reference guide, aided throughout by helpful teaching points. Reflecting the latest clinical perspectives and research, the second edition features outstanding new coverage of minimally invasive procedures, robotics, and gynecologic anatomy. This title features two resources in one - full-color medical text and surgical atlas that conveniently surveys the entire spectrum of gynecologic disease, including general gynecology, reproductive endocrinology and infertility, urogynecology, and gynecologic oncology. Atlas of gynecologic surgery contains 450 figures that illustrate operative techniques. It includes a unique consistent text design for an efficient approach to diagnosis and treatment. Its strong procedure orientation covers a vast array of surgical operations, which are illustrated in detail. Evidence-based discussion of disease evaluation reinforces and supports the clinical relevance of the book's diagnostic and treatment methods. This title comes from the distinguished authorship from the same Parkland Hospital-based team which edited "Williams Obstetrics" - the leading reference in obstetrics for more than a century. This title includes a newly illustrated gynecologic anatomy chapter created with the surgeon in mind to emphasize critical anatomy for successful surgery. It features coverage of minimally invasive procedures and robotics, the latest procedures in gynecologic oncology, and in-vitro fertilization. It includes numerous illustrations, photographs, tables, and treatment algorithms.
