Riassunto

A book of 50 or so of the most common presenting symptoms in obstetrics and gynaecology, presented in a problem-based way. The topics have been carefully chosen to cover the vast majority of situations likely to be encountered by the undergraduate - and most importantly - those on which they will be examined. Each topic is introduced by a short case vignette. This is followed by a description of the appropriate clinical examination, diagnostic procedures, treatment and prognosis.

• Covers the majority of situations likely to be encountered in rotations, on written and oral exams, and in everyday practice.
• Features clinical vignettes for fertility and menstrual problems, general gynecology, pregnancy problems, and labor and delivery problems.
• Includes mostly full-color illustrations to clarify the text.
