Clinical Cases in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Abstract

The authors of this book have checked with sources believed to be reliable in their efforts to provide information that is complete and generally in accord with the standards accepted at the time of publication. The clinical cases are designed to be a study companion to PreTest MRCOG: Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1st edition. In this textbook, the objective is to cover conditions most common in clinical practice, while highlighting disorders that regularly appear on board exams. Case vignettes and questions allow you to test your knowledge with detailed information about associated clinical findings, diagnostic tests, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis on the next page of the textbook. Once you learn the answers to the cases, we challenge you to quiz yourself on other details related to the diagnoses. We hope these clinical cases will be useful both to the students as an overview of obstetric and gynecologic essentials as well as to the experienced practitioner as a review of frequently encountered diagnoses and commonly tested clinical facts.
