In January 1902 the first issue of The Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of the British Empire was published, which led with a most fitting and insightful article written by Dr Hart, who called to make the twentieth century one of the greatest in the history of obstetrics.
We have dealt with an incredible range of issues over the years from puerperal sepsis to HIV and from preimplantation genetic diagnosis to assessing radical pelvic procedure. Gynaecological surgery has also advanced tremendously and we are proud to have been there to record every discovery and report each new finding. After 100 years BJOG is still going strong and we hope there are many more to come.
