Clinical Case Discussions in Obstetrics & Gynaecology 2nd/2014 (Reprint 2019)

Preface :

Welcome to the second edition of " Clinical Case Discussion in Obstetrics and Gynecology" An new edition to my surprise, takes so much more time and effort than the initial wirting of the book ! I have tried to update the book as much as possible, at the same time trying to retain its practical touch and avoiding too much of hard core theory. Each case discussion has been modified to keep up with current and good evidence. Most of the major guidelines and important publication on which the information is based are listed at the end of each chapter.
