商品簡介
Ryden (Johns Hopkins U. School of Medicine) and Blumenthal (Stanford U. School of Medicine) present the new edition of a work that has its roots in the formal gynecology curriculum implemented in the primary care residency track of the Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center in 1994, although the contents have evolved to take in a wider range and depth of topics. More clinically focused than the earlier edition and aimed mainly at the primary care physician already established in practice who is concerned with optimizing patient care, the volume contains 22 chapters addressing the gynecological examination, sexuality, menstrual disorders and abnormal bleeding, premenstrual syndrome, contraception, spontaneous and induced abortion, cervical cancer prevention, vaginitis and sexually transmitted diseases, gynecological emergencies, endometriosis, chronic pelvic pain, evaluation of pelvic masses, hysterectomy and alternatives, menopause, menopausal hormone therapy, diseases of the vulva, breast cancer screening and management of common breast problems, preconception care, infertility, intimate partner violence, and lesbian health issues.
