Uma importante referência ricamente ilustrada, concisa e abrangente sobre doenças do trato genital inferior e colposcopia. Esta obra foi projetada com base na experiência acumulada durante anos de ensino da colposcopia e das doenças que acometem o trato genital inferior. É composta por 16 capítulos, que contemplam assuntos de interesse dos médicos que praticam a colposcopia no seu dia a dia e também do ginecologista clínico que se defronta com questões pertinentes às doenças que acometem o trato genital inferior, tão comuns em sua rotina profissional. Dois capítulos são de capital importância nos dias atuais: o que versa sobre o rastreio do carcinoma nas mulheres homoafetivas e transexuais e também o que aborda a importância do exame colposcópico na Medicina Forense. O texto é enriquecido por material fotográfico de altíssima qualidade, obtido diretamente com o auxílio de câmera fotográfica, o que permite uma melhor resolução das imagens. Além disto, os autores demonstram objetividade quanto aos esquemas terapêuticos propostos, com base não apenas na experiência de um serviço universitário de referência com mais de 30 anos de existência, mas também em extensa literatura atual. É, sem dúvidas, uma importante referência para as demandas da clínica diária de uma forma concisa, completa e de fácil leitura.

This first volume of the series of the International Academy of Human Reproduction focuses on new aspects of reproductive medicine, from the professional responsibility model of ethics to the areas of high clinical involvement in human reproduction, such as endometriosis, polycystic ovary, family planning and post-coital contraception. The book discusses fertility and assisted reproductive techniques in the context of genetics and epigenetics as well as psychosomatic and longevity aspects. In addition, it presents new technologies and therapeutic strategies to improve IVF results and prevent ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, as well the new challenges and the future of imaging in reproduction. Menopause and the effects of estrogens on atero-prevention, mood, and more generally the reproductive hormones impact on dementia and healthy aging are also covered.

À l'opposé de la reproduction asexuée, où un seul individu engendre des copies de lui-même à peu près exactes, jamais novatrices, la reproduction sexuée fait participer à la naissance de l'organisme nouveau deux individus complémentaires, le mâle et la femelle...

This book presenting the latest thinking on Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility is truly international as the authors hail from no less than four different continents (North America, Europe, Australia and Asia). The idea for this book was conceived during the XII World Congress On Fertility and Sterility where the unique confluence of our distinguished authors occurred in Singapore in October 1986. The authors were involved in the Pre And Post Congress Scientific Programmes which we organised. The overwhelming success of the Congress and the Pre And Post Congress Scientific Programmes prompted this book so that those unable to attend the meeting will still be able to benefit from the vast range of topics covered. This book will be a valuable addition to the knowledge in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility and will be useful reading for those wishing to pursue this subspecialty. The authors are indebted to Lee Foundation (Singapore) for help in the publication of this book. We would also like to thank Miss Jam Siew Fong and Miss Tang May Mey for their excellent secretarial assistance.

Patients’ anxiety with STIs often lead to the early incidental discovery of concurrent genital dermatological conditions.
