Differential Diagnosis in Obstetrics and Gynaecology - An A-Z

One of the major challenges in obstetrics and gynaecology is the need for a broad knowledge of medicine and surgery as well as specific conditions related to reproduction. This revised and updated edition provides clinicians with invaluable assistance in the diagnostic process to differentiate quickly and correctly among various diseases and disorders presenting in the female patient. From minor to major symptoms, the differential diagnoses are explored and offered in a way that is easy to read and leads to practical management. Arranged alphabetically and based on presenting symptoms, the text provides readers with a step-by-step approach to provide associated differential diagnoses. Algorithms, references and websites have been included where appropriate. The layout is engaging, with excellent illustrations and useful boxes highlighting important points. There is also a glossary of common terms and terminology used in obstetrics and gynaecology at the end.
