Synopsis

"The Pelvic Floor" is a highly accessible, clinically focused book which comprehensively covers this important topic. Edited and written by multidisciplinary teams of coloprocologists, urologists, gynecologists and neurologists, it comprehensively covers the pelvic floor in both health and disease states. An evidence-based approach to management of problems is adopted throughout. The text is augmented by a plethora of illustrations, photographs, summary tables and boxes, together with helpful management algorithms that summarize treatment pathways for all common clinical problems of the pelvic floor. The book has grown out of the best-selling "Coloproctology and the Pelvic Floor", and will appeal to colorectal surgeons, gynecologists, neurologists, and urologists.
