You have both the e-book version as well as the hard cover version of this latest book on Minimally Invasive Gynaecological Surgery available from Springer Book Publishers. You have an option of even purchasing an individual chapter of the book online at www.springer.com. This wonderful text book edited by Istre Olav presents and discusses the latest advances in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery. It has contributions by world-renowned experts covering a wide range of techniques and indications. Approximately 70 % of gynecologic surgical procedures can now be performed with minimally invasive techniques. In this book, world-renowned experts describe the latest advances in the field and explain why endoscopy is of key importance in so many conditions. The scope of the book is broad. Hysteroscopic instrumentation is described, and the application of hysteroscopic techniques in patients with polyps, fibroids, malformations, and infertility is explained and evaluated. Individual chapters are devoted to the current minimally invasive treatment of endometriosis, endometrial polyps, and adenomyosis. The roles of laparoscopy in gynecologic oncology and the laparoscopic approach to hysterectomy are fully explored, and the relative merits of laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy and total laparoscopic hysterectomy are evaluated. Various other applications of laparoscopy are considered, with coverage of techniques including traditional straight stick laparoscopy, barbed suture, and robotic and single port surgery. Neurophysiology and the use of laparoscopic therapy to restore vital function are discussed, and complications of laparoscopic surgery are also addressed. According to me, the outstanding chapters in the book include.
