Challenging Concepts in Obstetrics and Gynaecology is a case-based guide to difficult scenarios faced in both fields, covering many of the major sub-speciality areas of each. The 24 cases have been selected to cover a spectrum of challenges in obstetrics and gynaecology. Recognising that any attempt to cover the whole curriculum is impossible, the authors have instead chosen specific, challenging scenarios that are commonly encountered in clinical practice, but by no means have simple answers or outcomes. Complex cases are examined from a multidisciplinary approach with consideration of diagnostic procedures, practical skills, evidence base, and the application of national and international guidelines. There is also a summary of evidence from the medical literature in various subspecialty areas of obstetrics and gynaecology, alongside current controversies in management. Cases are punctuated by easy-to-read "Learning Points", "Clinical Tips", and "Evidence Base" boxes, speeding the learning process as well as providing a handy dip-into guide for those just refreshing their memory. Each case is set off by an 'Expert Commentary' written by an internationally-renowned expert in each field, leaving the reader with both a solid base of knowledge and a nuanced view of current challenges in obstetrics and gynaecology. This collaboration between trainees and experts provides a unique insight into the management of complex and often rare but important obstetrics and gynaecology cases, within a highly user-friendly format and a ready-made means of self-learning and self-testing. Challenging Concepts in Obstetrics and Gynaecologymakes a useful, relevant and interesting read, enabling the reader to readily transfer the knowledge gained to everyday clinical practice.

Gynecologic and obstetric surgery is a craft that requires sound knowledge and skills. The specifics of each individual case must be understood to enable the best surgical management approach and to minimize complications. This resource book offers insightful management options to many of the challenges a gynecologic or obstetric surgeon may face before, during and after an operation. Divided into two sections, the book first covers general preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative challenges and, second, specific surgical procedures. It provides advice on both general gynecologic and obstetric operations, as well as subspecialist areas such as reproductive surgery, urogynecology and gynecologic oncology. The chapters are concise, beginning with illustrative case histories followed by background, management options, and any preventative approaches. Designed to guide the surgeon to safe practice throughout all stages, they offer practical and step-by-step help.

Effectively overcome difficult diagnostic challenges with Breast Imaging and Pathologic Correlations: A Pattern-Based Approach. This atlas is based on the morphology of the Birads Lexicon and not the pathology entities. It illustrates the "how" and "why" of breast imaging, whether via mammography or ultrasound and uses a case-based approach to walk you through a wide range of common and uncommon findings and correlates imaging patterns to pathology, helping you build your pattern recognition skills so you can diagnose breast cases with complete confidence. Key features increase your pattern recognition skills thanks to an organization by categories of pathologic presentation (i.e. masses, calcifications, architectural distortion, and other, less common malignant features) rather than by final diagnosis. It helps you to learn to evaluate masses based on shapes and margins, calcifications based on morphology and distribution and not the pathology entities, and distinguish architectural distortion from overlapping tissues. See how to distinguish between benign and malignant possibilities for almost every feature. Master the methodical thought process used by the most experienced radiologists so you can navigate the most challenging imaging findings, avoid diagnostic pitfalls, and provide the early detection patients need to ensure the best outcomes. Navigate the table of contents with ease as it provides a differential diagnosis per morphology. Now with the print edition, enjoy the bundled interactive eBook edition, offering tablet, smartphone, or online access to: complete content with enhanced navigation; a powerful search that pulls results from content in the book, your notes, and even the web. it offers cross-linked pages, references, and more for easy navigation; highlighting tool for easier reference of key content throughout the text; ability to take and share notes with friends and colleagues; and quick reference tabbing to save your favorite content for future use.

Volume grande formato (22 x 28) di 76 pagine, figure 3D, corredato di occhialini 3D. Doppia lingua, i testi presenti nel volume sono sia in Italiano che in Inglese. 3D glass included. Double language, the content is in English and Italian (in the same volume)La comparsa della tecnologia tridimensionale nell’ambito medico, dapprima con le apparecchiature ecografiche e poi con l’avvento della robotica e della laparoscopia tridimensionale, hanno impresso una forte accelerazione alla chirurgia mininvasiva. La chirurgia robotica si è imposta come una chirurgia intuitiva che ha reso fattibili interventi complessi anche a chirurghi che non avevano un training di chirurgia endoscopica. Il vantaggio di questa tecnica è la riproduzione non speculare del gesto delle mani, la possibilita` di magnificare l’immagine e la visione tridimensionale del campo chirurgico. Purtroppo la robotica è attualmente gravata da alti costi e da tempi di allestimento più lunghi rispetto alla laparoscopia.La comparsa di laparoscopi tridimensionali rappresenta un giusto compromesso tra facilitazione chirurgica, mini invasività e costi accettabili. In particolare l’introduzione della terza dimensione in laparoscopia consente di magnificare l’anatomia chirurgica, facilitare l’atto chirurgico e ridurre i tempi della learning curve. La profondità di campo consente manovre più precise e intuitive, facilitando enormemente, ad esempio, l’esecuzione di suture e nodi chirurgici.Per esperienza diretta lavorare in tridimensionale riduce lo sforzo mentale che il chirurgo deve compiere per comprendere, altrimenti, i piani bidimensionali ed adattare i movimenti delle mani ad una dimensione non fisiologica della visione.Scorrendo le pagine di questo libro si potrà apprezzare l’emozione che si prova ad operare in tridimensionale. Il Ginecologo si trova immerso in un viaggio all’interno della pelvi. Riesce ad offrire il massimo della professionalità tecnica sentendosi in perfetta simbiosi con le immagini tridimensionali senza soluzione di continuità tra l’operatore e l’operata.

The guide to effective practice management of precancerous lesions in cervix and lower genital tract. This third edition contains in-depth examination of the different modalities that contribute to the safe and scientific management of precancerous lesions in the female genital tract. One of the most important is colposcopy which provides an accurate and effective route to their identification. Professor Albert Singer is internationally recognized as a master of colposcopy. His training courses throughout the world are in high demand. In this edition, he has teamed with fellow expert Ashfaq Khan to present a very accessible, authoritative and highly illustrated guide to the power of colposcopy. Practical pictorial guidance to recognizing potentially cancerous abnormalities in the cervix, vagina, and vulva is framed by internationally agreed disease classifications. Consensus guidelines from the US and Europe provide a rigorous platform for management advice. The latest information on HPV, the role of biomarkers, and new methods in diagnosis and treatment are all featured. Cervical and Lower Genital Tract Precancer is the ideal companion for anyone wishing to incorporate safe and scientific methods of diagnosis and treatment into their clinical practice.
