Obstetric and Gynecologic Infectious Disease

This is a single-volume, comprehensive clinical reference on the infectious disease problems encountered by practising obstetricians and gynaecologists, in clinics, surgeries and hospital. The editor has brought together experts with the complete, up-to-date information that clinicians need to diagnose and treat these diseases. The text covers the full range of sexually transmitted diseases; infections related to pregnancy; postoperative infections; and other infections seen in women, from vaginitis and urinary tract infections, to pelvic inflammatory disease and toxic shock syndrome. A section on therapeutics and diagnostic techniques includes details on current drug therapies, as well as on colposcopy, histopathology, new rapid detection methods, interventional techniques, and radiology.
