    Sous l'influence des patientes et des économistes de la santé, l'hystéroscopie, diagnostique puis opératoire, est progressivement devenue une pratique quasi exclusive de chirurgie ambulatoire gynécologique. Elle est aujourd'hui reconnue comme une technique chirurgicale à part entière, dans un champ d'action qui va du domaine de la reproduction à celui de la pathologie dominante de la 5e décade, représentée par les ménométrorragies. Il s'agit d'une chirurgie fine, nécessitant un matériel dédié et des techniques spécifiques, enrichie ces dernières années grâce au développement des nouvelles technologies (bipolaire, miniaturisation des optiques, etc.). La fertiloscopie, technique encore peu diffusée, est particulièrement intéressante dans la prise en charge de l'infertilité en raison de son abord chirurgical mini-invasif. Pour chaque chapitre est indiqué le niveau de difficulté de réalisation des actes proposés ainsi qu'un encadré spécifique concernant les principaux éléments à retenir. L'information à donner aux patientes n'a pas été oubliée.De nombreux dessins explicatifs et des clichés opératoires sont associés à chaque chapitre afin de les rendre plus didactiques en identifiant clairement l'instrumentation et les temps opératoires. Cet ouvrage, résolument pratique et didactique, a été conçu comme un manuel de référence pour l'apprentissage de nouvelles techniques ou le perfectionnement dans le cadre d'une démarche de développement professionnel continu (DPC). Il permettra à tous les chirurgiens gynécologues-obstétr... d'appréhender ces techniques dans leur pratique au quotidien.
