This is a unique book in that it brings together the two key investigative techniques in Gynaecology and Obstetrics, namely ultrasound and endoscopy. So often in the past they were regarded by their exponents as rival techniques but it is now recognised that they are complementary to each other. Consequently future trainees in endoscopy should become efficient in transvaginal sonography and vice versa. Ultrasound can be used to study the morphology of the pelvic organs such as the endometrium, myometrium and ovaries, and being non-invasive, safe and convenient can be repeated as often as is deemed necessary to monitor changes over time; for example in the investigation of the infertile woman the development of the dominant follicle, the maturation of the endometrium and the formation of the corpus luteum can be documented throughout the menstrual cycle while growth of ovarian cysts can be precisely measured to determine the need for surgery. A seldom-mentioned strength of the ultrasound examination is its interactive quality, for example by performing abdominal palpation during the scan, the mobility of the uterus and ovaries can be assessed. Also the images as they appear can be shown to the patient to aid understanding. Ultrasound can also determine function and the use of Doppler has been used for example to access endometrial receptivity, follicular maturity and the likelihood of malignancy in the endometrium or ovary.

Gynaecological practice has changed fundamentally in the last three decades and a large proportion of major pelvic operations has been replaced by minimally invasive approaches. This book will cover minimally invasive approaches in all aspects of gynaecology including general gynaecology, oncology, urogynaecology and reproductive medicine. The chapters are written at a level appropriate for trainees/residents and general gynaecology specialists but enough details and additional resources will be provided for those who require further information. Specific aim of the book is to provide direct to the point surgical pearls which can be adapted to the daily practice instantly by the target audience. The book includes chapters on relevant surgical anatomy, principles of MIS, management of camera systems, video/image editing, initiating a successful MIS practice, improving efficiency of current MIS program, how to develop successful teaching techniques in academic setting, avoiding & managing MIS related surgical complications and preoperative/postoperative care before covering MIS for individual conditions including intensive care managements. Chapters are written by world renown authorities. ACOG guideline recently published a statement recommending vaginal hysterectomy and endoscopic hysterectomy should be considered as a first step of surgical choice. Current practice has been shifting from open cases to laparoscopic/ robotic assisted cases while vaginal cases stays steady. This shift has created an urge among gynaecologists to learn, improve or adapt laparoscopic/ robotic techniques in their practice.

Single port laparoscopy, also known as laparo-endoscopic single-site surgery (LESS), is a minimally invasive procedure in which a surgeon operates almost exclusively through a single entry point, typically the patient’s navel. Compared with traditional multi-port laparoscopic techniques, benefits of this procedure include less postoperative pain, less blood loss, faster recovery time, and better cosmetic results. This book is a guide to single port laparoscopic surgery for practising gynaecological surgeons. Divided into three sections, it begins with the basic principles, instruments and techniques. The second section provides in depth coverage of LESS for various gynaecological conditions including ectopic pregnancy, hysterectomy and in gynaecological oncology. The final part of the book discusses recent advances in LESS, examining robotic-assisted surgery and newer trends. Tips and Tricks for beginners are also included. Key points Guide to single port laparoscopic surgery for practising surgeons Covers instruments and techniques and surgery for numerous gynaecological disorders Final section examines recent advances and future developments Includes nearly 300 images, illustrations and tables

Covering various difficult surgeries encountered in daily gynecological practice and providing unique insights into operative gynecology, this atlas offers an essential learning guide for gynecologists. Standard gynecological surgeries may turn out to be extremely complex on the operating table; this atlas demonstrates how the operating gynecologist can manage such procedures successfully without causing any injuries. For each surgery, it includes a series of color photographs accompanied by descriptive step by step notes, explaining to the readers the surgical steps and the problems that might occur if the dissection is not performed correctly. Helping readers understand and visualize the textbook descriptions of gynecological surgeries, the atlas offers a valuable resource for postgraduate students and fellows of obstetrics and gynecology, as well as senior practicing gynecologists, urologists and surgeons.
