It is with great pride that I present to you the FOGSI's Postgraduate Gynaecology: A Textbook.
At the beginning of the year, we declared our wish to compile a detailed textbook that will comprehensively, yet in a concise manner, cover all the topics with the latest scientific evidences that a postgraduate student requires to thoroughly understand this subject. We believe that FOGSI being such a large and responsible federation should have its significant contribution in the curriculum for undergraduate and postgraduate education in Obstetrics and Gynecology. The content of such a curriculum should be scientifically and ethically sound, and useful in our Indian scenario.
This textbook has been a labor of love. At FOGSI, we have always believed that an investment in training and guiding future clinicians will reap the best rewards. With this in mind, we have made PG students our primary focus this whole year. This includes initiatives like the PG Forum, the PG Training Program, and the UG-PG Curriculum. This textbook is the crowning glory of the PG activities. The idea behind these activities was to promote respect and brotherhood among colleagues, to provide them with training, education and research opportunities, facilitate interactions between PG teachers and students from all over the country, to provide a mentor-mentee type experience and enable better learning; in short, to help them to become well-rounded practitioners once they go out into the world. This book is a continuation of that theme.
It is a source of great pride to have our FOGSI research and guidelines on many topics highlighted in this book. It gives our future clinicians a straightforward perspective when it comes to making decisions. It also provides a sense of uniformity to have students across the country referencing the same guidelines.
This is an exhaustive compendium, divided into 2 volumes with a total of 207 chapters, encompassing every aspect of our ever-changing and evolving field. We start with the basics of obstetrics, where we discuss anatomy, communication, counseling, and good clinical practices. We then cover normal pregnancy and fetal evaluation, stressing on newer concepts like genetics and genomics, noninvasive prenatal testing, as well as covering the gold standards like antenatal assessment and laboratory evaluation. We have five separate sections dedicated to complications in early and late pregnancy, preexisting medical conditions, and their management. We then move on to labor, its mechanisms and management, as well as its complications, anesthesia and analgesia, and rounding up with postpartum issues. We have separate sections dedicated to social obstetrics, to enlighten our readers about the steps that are being taken to tackle public health issues like maternal mortality and perinatal deaths. There is also a section on critical care, to make our future obstetricians capable of managing emergency situations with confidence.
This volume is on Gynaecology. We begin with contraception and pregnancy termination, to highlight the importance of a woman's choice to motherhood. The next sections cover the basics of the reproductive cycle, including chapters on neuroendocrine development, puberty and adolescence going on to menopause. We then cover basic ultrasound and diagnostic techniques. There are three dedicated sections on the care, management and operative aspects in general gynecological conditions. We then move on to specialized topics like infertility, endoscopy, urogynecology and oncology, giving our readers a 360-degree viewpoint of every aspect of gynecology.
It was a Herculean task, which could not have been completed successfully without the wholehearted support of the editors, Dr Parikshit Tank and Dr Ameya Purandare.
A special thanks to my amazing, energetic and efficient section editors, who worked quickly and competently to follow-up on authors, validate data, and compile this manuscript into the version you see today.
The final result is this magnum opus. We sincerely hope that it proves to be of value, not just to PG students, but to clinicians and academicians all across the country and beyond.
To quote Carl Jung, “Medicines can treat diseases, but only doctors can treat patients.”
We aim to create such doctors.
We look forward to your feedback.
