Recurrent Pregnancy Loss: Causes, Controversies and Treatment (Series in Maternal-Fetal Medicine)

This book provides an authoritative and comprehensive update on advances in the understanding and management of recurrent pregnancy loss, both with regard to the basic science and the clinical applications. As many subjects are controversial, and occasionally clinical decisions are based on lack of knowledge rather than evidence, chapters include debates by leading experts, to aid the clinician in deciding on the appropriate clinical management.
Chapters cover basic scientific topics, genetics and the application of evidence based medicine as well as the problems of mid trimester loss, late obstetric complications and related psychological mechanisms.
This book will be essential reading for specialists working in recurrent pregnancy loss clinics, and associated disciplines, and also of interest to anyone wishing to gain a comprehensive view of developments in the field.

Urolithiasis: Medical and Surgical Management of Stone Disease

Urolithiasis, or stone disease occurs in 7% of women and 12% of men at some point, and these statistics are rising. Furthermore, for those who form a stone, the likelihood of a recurrence is nearly 50% within 5 years of initial diagnosis. Therefore, the need for effective, minimally invasive alternatives for stone eradication and prevention is critical. Because stone disease comprises a large part of any urologist’s practice, a thorough knowledge of the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of stone disease is critical in order to understand and implement treatment strategies to prevent stone formation. Likewise, a working knowledge of the surgical treatments, instrumentation and outcomes is necessary to arm patients with sufficient information to make an informed decision and to provide the appropriate treatment modality for a given stone situation. In Urolithiasis: Medical and Surgical Management, the authors provide a complete guide to the management of stone disease from both a medical and surgical prospective. This book should be an invaluable resource for those who treat stone disease in any capacity, whether surgically or medically, acutely or long-term.

Medicine and Surgery: An integrated textbook

This is a stunning new hybrid textbook that has evolved as a direct response to the increasing integration of the two disciplines of medicine and surgery in today's medical curricula. The advantage of this combined approach is it reduces the amount of reading by the elimination of repetition (and inconsistencies) to provide an integrated explanation of the common problems faced both by students during exams and clinicians in daily practice. This book's greatest asset is the ability to illustrate that medical and surgical treatment options are actually part of a continuum in the management of disease.
*An integrated textbook combining the two major clinical specialities of general medicine and general surgery.
*Written and edited by a team of physicians and surgeons supported by a team of specialist subject advisors.
