9789925588756: Handbook of Laparoscopic Surgery

Synopsis

A handbook for obstetrics and gynecology residents who are starting to elaborate on laparoscopic surgery which does not aim to present new techniques nor to illustrate the history and evolution of laparoscopic surgery. Instead the authors have created a comprehensive text able to provide the minimum knowledge for one to operate safely and with confidence. They believe that a minimum proficiency in laparoscopy is necessary for every new gynecologist.

The book has been designed to live in every resident's pocket and not his library. To stimulate further studying a list of suggested literature can be found at the end of each chapter.

In recent years laparoscopy has been used more and more in the management of gynecologic cancer we felt that it was necessary to allocate a significant portion of this handbook on the laparoscopic management of gynecologic malignancies. In addition a chapter on robotic surgery has been included. At the end of this handbook the reader can find algorithms regarding troubleshooting and management of emergency situations in laparoscopy.
