Responding to the growing need for tried-and-trusted solutions to
the reproductive health care issues confronting millions of women
worldwide, Obstetrics and Gynecology in Low-Resource Settings
provides practical guidelines for ensuring the delivery of quality
OB/GYN care to women in resource-poor countries. Including
contributions from leading clinicians and researchers in the field,
this welcome overview fills an important gap in existing medical
literature on women's health care and will be an invaluable
resource for doctors, clinicians, and medical students at all
stages of their careers who work in the global health arena. The
reproductive health risks that all women face are greatly
exacerbated when health care facilities are inadequate, equipment
and medications are in short supply, and well-trained medical staff
are few and far away. Often in these settings, the sole doctor or
medical professional on hand has expertise in some areas of women's
reproductive care but needs a refresher course in others. This
informative guide features hands-on, step-by-step instruction for
the most pertinent OB/GYN conditions-both acute and chronic-that
health care workers in the field confront. The authors examine a
wide range of topics, including: strategies to reduce maternal
mortality and stillbirths; infectious and sexually transmitted
diseases, including malaria and HIV; cervical cancer;
contraception; prenatal, delivery, and newborn care; and
complications arising from gender-based violence and female genital
cutting. Published in a convenient format with a durable binding,
this reference will be an essential companion to health care
providers throughout the world.

discomfort and, more importantly, how back pain can be avoided.

Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery provides a complete,
practical and timely review of the minimally invasive surgical
techniques used to treat gynaecologic diseases and conditions.
Recent advances in technology and instrumentation, particularly the
use of robot-assisted surgery, mean that minimally invasive
approaches have become increasingly established as alternatives to
traditional open surgeries. This book describes the full range of
minimally invasive procedures in current gynaecologic practice,
with discussion of the indications and contraindications and a
summary of available evidence. The book opens with a section
describing instrumentation, electrosurgery, how to avoid and manage
complications and single port surgery. Subsequent sections cover
procedures for benign and malignant conditions and relevant
robotically assisted surgeries. Highly structured chapters provide
practical guidance to key steps of each procedure, alternative
management options; contraindications and available evidence
Stellar contributors from leading centers in the USA, Brazil,
Chile, Canada, France, Italy and Belgium ensure coverage reflects
