This text provides a practical, accessible guide to emergency situations encountered in obstetrics and gynaecology. Designed around the symptoms and signs with which the patient presents to the hospital, it explains how to arrive at a differential diagnosis and to prevent, manage, or treat an emergency. The obstetric emergencies section covers topics from early pregnancy through to post-delivery complications, whilst the gynaecologic emergencies section addresses those issues that could potentially pose a threat to a women's fertility or even her life.
