DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Berek and Hacker's Gynecologic Oncology is written for gynecologic
oncologists and fellows, general gynecologists and medical and
radiation oncologists and presents the general principles and medical
and surgical treatment for the range of gyencologic cancers: cervical,
breast, ovarian, vulvar and vaginal and uterine. Chapters are templated
and evidence-based. The strength of this book is its ability to translate
basic science to clinical practice. Gynecologic Oncology is one of the
four gynecologic subspecialties (along with FPMRS, REI and MFM).
For this edition, I propose we include the book on HealthLibrary, so that
we offer a comprehensive residency product.
Drugs in Pregnancy and Lactation is an A-Z listing of drugs by generic
name. Each monograph is a careful and exhaustive summary of the
literature as it relates to drugs and their known or possible effects to the
fetus in pregnancy and to the baby through lacation. Each monograph
is templated to include generic US name, Pharmacologic class, Risk
factor, Fetal risk summary, Breast feeding, and References. This edition
includes access to the entire contents of the book, which will be updated
quarterly, initially.
