Williams Gynecology, 3rd Edition (2016) (PDF) by Barbara L. Hoffman, MD

Description

Williams Gynecology provides comprehensive coverage of the full spectrum of gynecologic healthcare and disease management, including benign general gynecology; reproductive endocrinology, infertility, and menopause; female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery; and gynecologic oncology. The surgical management sections include Aspects of Gynecologic Surgery and Atlas of Gynecologic Surgery, which covers Surgeries of Benign Gynecologic Conditions, Minimally Invasive Surgery, Surgeries for Female Pelvic Reconstruction, and Surgeries for Gynecologic Malignancies.

Williams Gynecology, Third Edition is beautifully illustrated, with hundreds of original drawings for both the surgical atlas and medical reference portions. Each chapter follows a practical template for a consistent approach to diagnosis and treatment. With its extensive use of treatment algorithms, differential diagnosis boxes, and other elements, this book is an outstanding quick-reference.

User’s Reviews

This book does not contain adequate coverage of the nerves and vasculature of the clitoris and labia minora. Neither sexual nor protective functions of the labia minora are mentioned. The distal course of the dorsal nerve within the clitoris itself is barely shown but not described. Injury to the dorsal nerve is not mentioned as a potential cause of sexual dysfunction. Sexual dysfunction is primarily approached as an issue of hormones and/or psychology. The physiology and biomechanics of arousal and orgasm are not adequately described. Labiaplasty is described as “safe and effective” despite inadequate coverage of operative anatomy.

However, this is honestly the best OB/GYN textbook I have seen, as it does barely show the course of the dorsal nerve in the clitoris in one illustration. This is the only illustration of the distal course of the dorsal nerve in any OB/GYN textbooks I have seen, besides Williams Obstetrics, which shows the same illustration. Unfortunately, the illustration is anatomically incorrect – the clitoral hood should never be longer than the descending segment of the clitoral body.
