Consacrée à une technique ou à un ensemble de techniques pour une pathologie ou une région anatomique, les volumes de la collection « Techniques chirurgicales » décrivent pas à pas les techniques, en s’appuyant sur une riche iconographie, des textes concis et des conseils.Bien que l’objectif principal de la chirurgie soit le traitement de la maladie, la survenue de complications fait partie de la pratique du chirurgien. En gynécologie, ces complications sont principalement hémorragiques, digestives et urologiques, et elles peuvent mettre en jeu le pronostic fonctionnel ou vital de la patiente.Les auteurs abordent un sujet sensible qui touche environ une patiente sur six, et d’autant plus crucial que la moitié de ces complications pourraient être évitées. Ce sont principalement des erreurs humaines survenant pendant l’intervention, par manque de connaissance ou d’attention, qu’il est possible d’éviter en les anticipant.Cet ouvrage propose trois parties pour prévenir, diagnostiquer et gérer les complications rencontrées en salle d’opération :Une première partie rappelle les règles de base de la prévention et du diagnostic des complications de la chirurgie gynécologique : check-list de sécurité au bloc opératoire, règles pour une dissection sûre, règles de l’électrochirurgie, vérification et débriefing, diagnostic précoce des complications, étapes pour réopérer, surveillance à domicile, le concept de seconde victime, la gestion de l’information aux patients, des aspects médicaux légaux et des conflits au bloc opératoire...Une deuxième partie aborde les complications selon le point de vue des spécialistes : chirurgiens vasculaires, digestifs, urologues. Un chapitre entier est dédié à la prise en charge de la douleur postopératoire.Enfin, une dernière partie expose en détails la prévention, le diagnostic et la prise en charge des complications des différentes intervention gynécologiques : mise en place de la coelioscopie, chirurgie robotique, chirurgie d’urgence, de l’infertilité, endométriose, incontinence, prolapsus, hystérectomie, voie vaginale…Cet ouvrage, inédit, est indispensable pour tout chirurgien qui aborde la chirurgie gynécologique (chirurgiens gynécologues, urologues et généraux). Il a été rédigé par plus de trente auteurs référents dans le but de transmettre leur expérience pratique pour prévenir les complications et améliorer leur prise en charge.Une banque d’images en ligne vous permet de visualiser toutes les iconographies.POINT CLÉS :Tous les aspects théoriques, pratiques et légaux autour des complications de la chirurgie gynécologique.Une iconographie didactique pour guider les praticiens.Les spécificités de la prise en charge des complications postopératoires.Michel Canis est professeur des universités, praticien hospitalier en gynécologie obstétrique dans le service de chirurgie gynécologique de l’hôpital Estaing au CHU de Clermont-Ferrand.Karem Slim est professeur associé, chirurgien viscéral au Pôle Santé République du Groupe ELSAN à Clermont-Ferrand, et membre du comité de rédaction du Journal de chirurgie viscérale.
