    Book description

    This concise yet immensely practical handbook provides the busy clinician with a self-contained account of the diagnosis and management of ectopic pregnancy. Such pregnancies, which develop outside the normal confines of the uterine cavity, are a relatively common occurence and there is some evidence their prevalence is increasing. There is therefore a need for a practical and focused account which assesses and evaluates the important clinical issues. The emphasis throughout is to clearly summarise and provide rapid solutions to the most difficult problems posed by ectopic pregnancy. The text is fully supported by numerous and helpful ultrasound images, line diagrams illustrating surgical techniques, and by highlighted summaries of key facts and decision trees.

    Reviews

    ‘ … a well written and comprehensive handbook covering all aspects of this important subject … very readable and just about the right length … an excellent book for post graduates and any clinicians dealing with patients who have an ectopic pregnancy … an invaluable resource … I can thoroughly recommend this book.’

    Keith A. Louden Source: The Lancet

    ‘... clearly and concisely sets out the background and the options for treatment and provides helpful ‘point summaries‘ at the end of chapters.’

    Alex Paton Source: BMJ

    ‘ … gives clear, basic informaton as well as summarizing the most recent research findings. The layout is clear and easy to follow … All practising gynaecologists will manage ectopic pregnancies, and this is an interesting and practical guide to their aetiology and management.’

    Margot Thomas Source: Hospital Update

    ‘ … invaluable for the clinician and researcher alike. It can be ‘dipped into’ to answer a particular clinical question or can be used as an excellent reference book.’
