Sommario/riassunto

"This book describes and discusses the most commonly used office gynecologic procedures. The goal is to facilitate optimal management of our patients and their gynecologic problems. Written by the faculty, fellows and residents of the Stanford Department of Obstetrics and



Gynecology who took great care to include the details for the performance of excellent office-based diagnosis and treatment, this book is an important tool for practitioners of our specialty. I extend my gratitude to Dr. Paul Blumenthal and my colleagues for this valuable effort and their commitment to outstanding patient care"--Provided by publisher.
