RG101

Using a vignette and question format, this resource explains clinical and educational concepts selected for their relevance in clinical practice and test preparation. The book's 150 clinical vignettes cover the full spectrum of OB/GYN, and a chapter on general issues covers topics such as domestic violence, medical ethics, and obesity. Each vignette gives a brief, illustrated clinical presentation (one or two figures per vignette), and presents questions and answers on the diagnosis and management of a particular case. Supporting this real-world, bedside perspective are references for all of the evidence-based answers, plus brief explanations that call attention to key concepts and information. The book will serve as a practical reference and review for residents, medical students, practicing physicians, nurse practitioners, and other allied health professionals. Azziz is affiliated with the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.
