Summary:

Pelvic Floor, Perineal, and Anal Sphincter Trauma During Childbirth is a comprehensive text that focuses on the maternal morbidity associated with childbirth. The book is edited by a reputable international team of obstetricians and urogynaecologists who have an in-depth knowledge of the subject and are actively involved in training and research. In recognition of the longstanding global diversity in obstetric practice and the management of its sequelae, the authors have compiled the ultimate evidence-based textbook that examines the diagnosis, pathophysiology, management, and prevention of obstetric trauma. It is known that the majority of doctors and midwives have suboptimal training in the anatomy and repair of perineal and anal sphincter trauma. This book aims to address these deficiencies by providing a comprehensive approach in the understanding of this anatomy and provides tips on making an accurate diagnosis and classification of perineal trauma. The dilemmas surrounding repair techniques and management of subsequent pregnancies are fully debated and preventative strategies are highlighted. Chapters on female genital mutilation, the management of faecal incontinence, caesarean section, pre-existing bowel conditions, sexual dysfunction and litigation are also Included. This book is essential reading for all who are involved in obstetric care both in the labour ward and even years after parturition; obstetricians, midwives, family practitioners, colorectal surgeons, gastroenterologists, physiotherapists, continence advisors and lawyers can all glean knowledge applicable to their own specialty. In everyday practice, the text can also serve as a handbook for quick reference and should therefore be easily accessible in all antenatal clinics labour ward rooms and perineal/pelvic floor clinics.
