Bonney's Gynaecological Surgery

Surgery is a core element of the clinical practice of gynaecology. Bonney's Gynaecological Surgery has been a firm favourite for gynaecological surgical practice since 1911. Specifically tailored for trainees in obstetrics and gynaecology, the text focuses on the most commonly performed procedures. The 12th edition will include a colour photo section. With greater emphasis on fundamental clinical skills and major updates on laparoscopic and robotic surgery, this classic text will be brought right up to date for the current trainee or junior consultant physician. Each chapter follows a consistent plan, guiding the reader through each procedure from anatomy and indications to post-op considerations and complications. The text is also accompanied by surgical illustrations of unparalleled quality, ensuring that this volume will remain a valuable resource for all clinicians specializing in gynaecological surgery.

Die Chirurgie ist ein zentraler Bestandteil des klinischen Curriculums in der Gynäkologie. Bonney's Gynaecological Surgery ist seit 1911 das Referenzwerk zu chirurgischen Eingriffen in der Gynäkologie. Dieses Fachbuch richtet sich an Assistenzärzte in der Geburtshilfe und Gynäkologie und legt den Schwerpunkt auf häufig durchzuführende Eingriffe. Die 12. Auflage bietet einen Abschnitt mit Farbfotos, konzentriert sich noch stärker auf grundlegende klinische Fertigkeiten, enthält Aktualisierungen zu laparoskopischen und robotergestützten Verfahren sowie neue Kapitel zu medizinrechtlichen Fragen. Jedes Kapitel ist einheitlich aufgebaut und führt den Leser durch die einzelnen Techniken ? Anatomie, Hinweise zu postoperativen Aspekten und Komplikationen. Herausragend sind die in ihrer Qualität einzigartigen Illustrationen zu chirurgischen Eingriffen. Damit ist dieses Referenzwerk nach wie vor ein wertvolles Nachschlagewerk für alle angehenden Fachärzte der chirurgischen Gynäkologie.
