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.

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.Mich...
