Evidence Based Color Atlas of Obstetrics & Gynecology: Diagnosis and Management

Featuring more than 1700 clinical, pathological and surgical photographs, this atlas is a comprehensive reference guide to the diagnosis and management of numerous obstetrical and gynaecological disorders.

Divided into two sections (obstetrics and gynaecology), each section is further divided into sub sections covering key clinical aspects and disorders in each of the disciplines.

Presented in an easy to read three column format throughout, each topic provides high quality photographs with a concise, clinical description, and management techniques.

Each chapter includes ‘Evidence based breakthrough facts’ with source details, for further research.
