This edition is a guide to the diagnosis and treatment of outpatient gynaecologic problems seen in primary care settings. Three main sections (common problems, special issues and general care of the patient) cover a wide range of topics, such as sexually transmitted and other contagious diseases, contraception, premenstrual syndrome, rape, HIV infection and AIDS, and specimen collection and interpretation. New to this edition is a chapter on human papillomavirus. Each chapter discusses a specific issue in an outline format that addresses a patient's history, the physical examination, investigative procedures and management. Written in a clear, direct style, this guide is designed for on-the-spot consultation, whether in the office or the emergency department.
