The rapid pace of the introduction of new surgical techniques for the treatment of gynecologic disease has required the timely revision of Te Linde's Operative Gynecology. Until 1992 the text was revised every 7 to 9 years. Since then the interval to revision has significantly shortened to 4 to 5 years due to the rapid advances in the field of surgery. Dr. Richard Te Linde wrote the first edition. Today up to 72 contributors have shared their personal insights and surgical approaches for the treatment to improve the health of women. Te Linde's Operative Gynecology has been, and hopefully will continue to be, a major influence in maintaining and improving the quality of gynecologic surgery.
The tenth edition of Te Linde's Operative Gynecology presents the basic, sound principles for established gynecologic surgical technique. Major advances in the field of education of the gynecologic surgeon and the changing environment in which we practice gynecologic surgery are presented. John Deutsh, P. L. Malone, Leon Schlossburg, and others have contributed excellent medical illustrations throughout the last 10 editions. We appreciate the new medical illustrations prepared by Jennifer Smith in Chapters 17, Diagnostic and Operative Laparoscopy; 19, Control of Pelvic Hemorrhage; 23, Surgical Conditions of the Vulva; 32A, Abdominal Hysterectomy; 32C, Laparoscopic Hysterectomy; 34, Ectopic Pregnancy; 35A, Obstetric Problems; 36C, Paravaginal Defect Repair; 36D, Posterior Compartment Defects; 37, Stress Urinary Incontinence; 43, Intestinal Tract in Gynecologic Surgery; 50, Pelvic Exenteration; and 51, Surgical Reconstruction of the Pelvis in Gynecologic Cancer Patients; and by Joe Chovan in Chapter 18, Operative Hysteroscopy. The addition of color to the text offsets important figures and tables.
In view of the major focus on best surgical practices in surgical specialties, we have introduced a new section in each chapter that discusses the major take-home points. These best surgical practices present the opinion of the authors. Each clinical situation is unique, and readers should exercise their professional judgment accordingly. The information presented in the best practices is educational in nature and not a set of guidelines for use in any given situation. The authors, editors, and publisher are not responsible for errors or omissions or for any consequences from application of this or any other information in this book and make no warranty, expressed or implied, with respect to the contents of the publication.
Also new to this edition are definitions, which have been added as a part of the introduction of each chapter. The self-test questions in the Appendix have been revised and will allow the reader to self test after reviewing a specific topic. Perhaps more importantly, the editors have added for the first time a DVD of several surgical procedures previously introduced as surgery in the retroperitoneal space, with accompanying text. Hopefully this will be a regular feature of future editions and will add an appreciation of the Art of Surgical Techniques.
The authors wish to sincerely thank all the contributors and gratefully acknowledge the assistance of Barbara Schmitt, Lynne Black, Patsy Shepard, and the Lippincott Williams & Wilkins editorial team of Sonya Seigafuse, Ryan Shaw, Nicole Dernoski, Mark Flanders, and Rosanne Hallowell for their attention to details and hard work in the preparation of this book. As always, we are deeply indebted to those authors and editors who have labored to write the previous editions of this text. The current edition would not exist without their dedication. We owe a sincere debt of gratitude to Drs. Richard W. TeLinde, Richard F. Mattingly, and John D. Thompson.
The world's leading gynecologic surgery reference for 60 years, TeLinde's Operative Gynecology is now in its revised Tenth Edition. In this new edition, TeLinde's leads the field with a Best Surgical Practices section in each chapter that synthesizes the best way for surgical procedures.
This classic text is rooted in the Johns Hopkins tradition of gynecologic surgery, but now includes 75 contributors, for a broader, more complete presentation of national and international practices. The book provides encyclopedic coverage of the etiology, diagnosis, and step-by-step surgical treatment of benign and malignant diseases and disorders of the female pelvis. More than 1,600 illustrations demonstrate the surgical techniques.
The Tenth Edition has brand-new illustrations in the chapters on diagnostic and operative laparoscopy, control of pelvic hemorrhage, surgical conditions of the vulva, laparoscopic hysterectomy, ectopic pregnancy, paravaginal defect repair, posterior compartment defect repairs, intestinal tract in gynecologic surgery, and operative hysteroscopy. A new two-color design highlights important figures and tables. Each chapter of this edition includes definitions and revised self-testing questions.
A bound-in DVD provides videos and accompanying text on para-aortic node dissection, avascular spaces of the pelvis, pelvic node dissection, hypogastric artery ligation, and presacral neurectomy.
