The medical, surgical, and psychological problems associated with the female reproductive system in infancy and adolescence demand the highest standards of clinical intervention. Clinical Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology provides a comprehensive review of all PAG problems encountered in daily practice, in the ambulatory as well as the surgical setting. A unique feature is the inclusion of a CD-ROM containing video clips provided from the NASPAG collection and a series of text materials that users can download and adapt for local use.
