Main description:

Obstetrics and Gynecology: Clinical Correlations with Diagnostic Implications provides 42 clinical cases in obstetrics and gynaecology, designed to reduce misinterpretation in diagnosis of diseases, by taking into account all aspects of the patient's health, age, medical history and symptoms.

This book is divided into two parts; the first part contains 23 cases in obstetrics, the second contains 19 cases in gynaecology. These two parts are further divided into twelve sections, beginning with general obstetrics and covering topics such as postpartum complications, breast, cervical and uterus abnormalities. Each case features the complaint, patient history and physical examination, and a set of multiple choice questions with answers and explanations.

Featuring full colour images and illustrations throughout, Obstetrics and Gynecology: Clinical Correlations with Diagnostic Implications is an ideal guide to diagnosis for obstetrics and gynaecology practitioners.
