Summary:

Williams Gynecology provides a thorough, evidence-based presentation of gynecology's depth and breadth. In Section 1, general gynecology topics are covered. Section 2 provides chapters covering reproductive endocrinology and infertility. The developing field of female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery is presented in Section 3. In Section 4, gynecologic oncology is discussed.Traditionally, gynecologic information has been offered either as a didactic text or a surgical atlas. Instead, because the day-to-day activity of a gynecologist blends these two, we did the same with our text. The initial four sections of our book describe the evaluation and medical treatment of gynecologic problems. The remaining two sections focus on the surgical patient. Section 5 offers detailed anatomy and a discussion of perioperative considerations. Our final section presents an illustrated atlas for the surgical correction of conditions described in Sections 1 through 4. In addition, chapters are extensively complemented by illustrations, photographs, diagnostic algorithms, and treatment tables. To interconnect this content, readers will find page references within one chapter that will direct them to complementary content in another.
