The popularity of minimally invasive techniques continues to grow, and patients are increasingly aware of the advantages these methods offer: reduced scarring, shorter hospital stays and faster convalescence. Gynaecologists in particular are now finding it necessary to acquire a new range of skills to enable them to perform operations which were, for the most part, developed after they had finished their training. This book aims to provide the gynaecologist with a basic guide to hysteroscopy: how to carry out simple and more advanced procedures, necessary equipment and facilities, and how to avoid complications.
