ABSTRACT

Making speedy and appropriate clinical decisions is one of the most challenging parts of doctor training. These true-to-life cases will teach students and junior doctors to recognize important obstetric and gynaecological conditions and to develop their diagnostic and management skills. A succinct summary of the patient's history, examination, and initial investigations-including photographs where relevant-is followed by questions on the diagnosis and management of each case. Each answer includes a detailed discussion of the topic, with further illustration where appropriate, providing an essential revision aid as well as a practical guide for students and junior doctors.
