Obstetrics and Gynecology 7/e

Established as the standard resource of the obstetrics and gynecology clerkship, Obstetrics and Gynecology is now in
its revised Seventh Edition. This is the only clerkship book on the market fully compliant with The American College of
Obstetricians and Gynecologist (ACOG) guidelines, treatment recommendations, and committee opinions. The text aligns
with the Association of Professors of Gynecology and Obstetrics' (APGO) educational objectives,upon which most
clerkship evaluations and final exams are based and provides key features for self-assessment, including USMLE-style
questions.

Designed for the OB/GYN clerkship and the national standardized exams, this reference provides key information
essential to the student and practitioner. Guidelines from the APGO's Instructional Objectives for a Clinical
Curriculum in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 7th Edition are incorporated. Over 2,000 questions in vignette format help in
USMLE preparation, and over 100 new clinical cases hone readers' diagnostic skills. Each chapter begins with primary
objectives and all are carefully edited for consistency of presentation. Twenty-five new line drawings by original
artist Joyce Lavery help clarify the text.
