Surgical ObstetricsThis beautifully-illustrated reference guides the reader step-by-step through the complete spectrum of obstetrical surgical procedures from cesarean section and tubal ligation to cesarean hysterectomy and intrauterine fetal surgery. Also covers rare obstetric surgical emergencies such as ruptured uterus, inverted uterus, abdominal pregnancy, and other extratubal ectopic gestations. The effects of surgery on pregnancy and the complications following surgery that may be due to the gestation itself are detailed, making this reference a unique volume describing surgery in the field of obstetrics. |
