The third edition of Clinical Obstetrics - The Fetus and Mother is unique in that it gives in-depth attention to the two patients – fetus and mother, giving special coverage to each patient. Clinical Obstetrics - The Fetus and Mother covers the biology, pathology, and clinical management of disorders affecting the fetus and the mother with illustrations highlighting essential diagnostic features and treatment procedures. The book has been extensively revised and in some cases reorganized for clarity and flow. This book is fully up to date with special chapters on;

first trimester prenatal screening
3-D and 4-D ultrasound
medical and surgical fetal therapy
foetal stem cell therapy
prenatal diagnosis and fetal developmental biology
benign tumors in pregnancy

and extensive discussion of each of the main areas of maternal diseases. The book has been made more succinct yet heavily annotated and illustrated giving greater clinical emphasis enabling fast decisions at the point of care; all chapters now have key summary points making it easy to retrieve information.

In addition Clinical Obstetrics - The Fetus and Mother includes a new searchable CD of the text including over 100 colour illustrations, and a Q&A book allowing you to test your learning.

Formerly known as Medicine of the Fetus and Mother and highly successful in two previous editions published by Lippincott
