Atlas Of Laparoscopic And Hysteroscopic Techniques For Gynecologists

Here's the 2nd Edition of a concise, practical, step-by-step, illustrated guide on how to perform a range of laparoscopic or hysteroscopic interventions. Over 30 advanced gynecological surgical procedures are described in detail with outlines of potential complications. Presents over 330 illustrations to show the practicing gynecologist how to perform a variety of advanced procedures. This edition features 14 new chapters.

This beautifully illustrated book provides a practical step-by-step guide to all the laparoscopic and hysteroscopic procedures performed by gynecologists. Each procedure is described in detail and fully illustrated with color photographs. The potential complications are described, and the circumstances in which a procedure is contraindicated are examined. The Third Edition of the "Manual of Laparoscopic and Hysteroscopic Techniques" has been expanded and extensively updated with new chapters including: transvaginal hydrolaparoscopy, laparoscopy radical trachelectomy, laparoscopic abdominal cerclage, and hysteroscopy sterilization. "Manual of Laparoscopic and Hysteroscopic Techniques" is an invaluable resource for busy practicing gynecologists who want to learn step-by-step techniques of a surgical procedure.

This is a new edition of one of the modern classics of gynecological surgery. Providing an extensive and beautifully illustrated guide to laparoscopic and hysteroscopic techniques, the book has been extensively revised and updated since publication of the Second Edition. There are few texts that so adequately provide in-depth information on minimally invasive gynaecologic surgery. This informative and thorough work of reference provides both practicing surgeons and trainees with an atlas, a textbook of gynecology, and a surgical manual. The coverage is comprehensive, including extensive sections on gynaecologic oncology, urogynecology, basic principles, and instrumentation. Complications are highlighted with authoritative guidance on how to avoid and manage them.

Since its introduction in the 1980s, the use of endoscopic surgery in gynecology has grown tremendously, its equipment improved, and methods refined. Today it is clear that the future of gynecologic surgery lies in the realm of minimally invasive techniques. An Atlas of Operative Laparoscopy and Hysteroscopy, Second Edition is not just a how-to-do-the-surgery book, but also a guide to the pathogenesis, pathophysiology, and epidemiology of the urogynecological area. Thoroughly updated to reflect advances in methods and technology, the book covers established techniques such as laparoscopic tubal anastomosis, endometrial ablation, and ovarian surgery, to cite just a few. It pays special attention to emerging procedures and technologies, including the use of robotics and the treatment of carcinoma. Of particular importance is the section on complications, which shows you how to recognize and avoid potential pitfalls. With more than 850 illustrations, most in full color, An Atlas of Operative Laparoscopy and Hysteroscopy, Second Edition is informative and thorough. As a reference, as a text, and as a surgical manual, it provides the grounding in current and emerging surgical techniques you need to stay at the top of your field.

The ATLAS OF ENDOSCOPIC TECHNIQUES IN GYNECOLOGY provides a step-by-step illustrated guide to techniques in all the principal gynecological procedures. Each procedure follows a template format covering indications, patient selection, preparation and technique - including complications and references. The excellent color illustrations enable the surgeon to recognize anatomic landmarks and recall the sequence of tasks when he or she is in the operating room.

Minimally invasive surgery has emerged as the standard treatment for many gynecologic diseases and conditions. In the past decade, numerous studies have demonstrated the superiority of laparoscopic approaches over standard open procedures in terms of improved quality of life for patients. Innovations in minimally invasive surgical technology—such as multichannel ports, articulating instruments, and flexible high-definition endoscopes—have made it possible for laparoscopic surgeons to perform increasingly complicated gynecologic surgeries through smaller incisions. As such, since the first edition of the atlas published in 2014, technologies and techniques once considered novel have become standard. This second edition, with five new chapters and content updated throughout to reflect the latest evolutions in the field, serves as a guide in robotic, conventional, and single-port laparoscopic surgery, presenting invaluable, up-to-date information about instrumentation, surgical technique, port systems, and the current research and development in robotics. Chapters address unique challenges associated with each technique, such as lack of haptic feedback or articulation and instrument crowding, and describe the advanced laparoscopic skills required to safely and efficiently perform procedures, such as how to move and control a flexible camera or use the robot. Specific topics include conventional laparoscopic myomectomy, adnexal surgery, total and supracervical hysterectomy, and excision of endometriosis excision, as well as related techniques in gynecologic oncology, urogynecology and pelvic reconstructive surgery, tubal surgery and ectopic pregnancy, isthmocele repair, and trachelectomy for early cervical cancer. For single-port laparoscopic techniques, chapters are presented on adnexal surgery, hysterectomy, and gynecologic oncology, while the section on robotic surgery offers guidance on instrumentation, platforms, and basic principles; robotic-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy, total hysterectomy for benign disease, endometriosis management, and total hysterectomy for cancer; as well as techniques for robotic adnexal surgery, urogynecology/pelvic reconstructive surgery, tubal surgery, and complication management, concluding with a review of new and emerging technologies. For students, residents, fellows, operating room personnel, and practicing gynecologic surgeons, the editors share experience amassed while developing novel surgical instrumentation and collaborating on presentations for numerous worldwide events. Internationally renowned experts contribute as well to this practical, illustrated resource on current minimally invasive techniques in gynecologic surgery.
