Operative hysteroscopy represents an important extension of operative gynaecology. The benefits of this endoscopic technique, however, are balanced by its high demands on the operator. It requires excellent knowledge of safety issues and possible complications. This book acts as guide and resource for the practical acquisition of this technique. This new edition is distinguished by the large number of improved color illustrations and incorporation of the newest scientific findings.
