Edited by Sabaratnam Arulkumaran, William Ledger, Lynette Denny, and Stergios Doumouchtsis

Abstract

The Oxford Textbook of Obstetrics and Gynaecology is an up-to-date, objective, and readable text that covers the full speciality of obstetrics and gynaecology. This comprehensive and rigorously referenced textbook will be a vital resource in print and online for all practising clinicians. Larger sections on the basics in obstetrics and gynaecology, fetomaternal medicine, management of labour, gynaecological problems, and gynaecological oncology are complemented by specialist sections on areas such as neonatal care and neonatal problems, reproductive medicine, and urogynaecology and pelvic floor disorders, to name a few. The evidence-based presentation of current diagnostic and therapeutic methods is complemented in the text by numerous treatment algorithms, giving the reader the knowledge and tools needed for effective clinical practice.
