TY - JOUR T1 - NEzhat’s operative gynecologic laparoscopy and hysteroscopy AU - Burkman RT, Grow DR Y1 - 2009/05/27 N1 - 10.1001/jama.2009.732 JO - JAMA SP - 2162 EP - 2166 VL - 301 IS - 20 N2 - Nezhat's Operative Gynecologic Laparoscopy and Hysteroscopy is a glossy 630 pages that surveys the expanding world of endoscopy and the developments achieved over the last 4 decades—developments that accelerated rapidly after the addition of the video monitor to the rigid laparoscope. Other equipment innovations of the last decade are nothing short of remarkable and make almost any procedure previously performed through a large abdominal incision now possible endoscopically, with a high level of safety, rapid recovery, and often superior results. The third edition of this text, which has been expanded to include hysteroscopy and infertility, attempts to educate gynecologic surgeons, both novice and expert, on the techniques and instrumentation to make such procedures possible. However, the often extensive practice required for mastery is not included in the purchase price. SN - 0098-7484 M3 - doi: 10.1001/jama.2009.732 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/jama.2009.732 ER -
