Uterine fibroids are very common in women of reproductive age and are mostly benign. However, they are often a cause of abnormal bleeding and, in severe cases, can cause infertility. This comprehensive guide reviews the clinical management of uterine fibroids, with a particular focus on practical surgical techniques. Engage with topics such as the anatomy of the pelvis, key theatre equipment and surgical treatments including hysteroscopic and laparoscopic techniques. Features also include debates around morcellation, and less invasive treatments such as uterine artery embolisation are also covered. An online video library of surgical procedures reinforces the practical techniques taught in the book and detailed colour images supplement the book's thorough coverage of fibroid management. This makes Modern Management of Uterine Fibroids an essential resource for practicing gynaecologists and IVF specialists, as well as students.
- Offers detailed practical advice for surgical theatre equipment and techniques, for both new and established practitioners in the field
- Coverage of both surgical techniques and less invasive treatments ensures a well-rounded overview of the management of uterine fibroids
- The practical guide includes an up-to-date review of the debate around morcellation use
- Detailed online video supplements reinforce the practical techniques explained in the book and aid in teaching the methods used
