    A 34-year old in her first pregnancy presents to the obstetric triage at 32 weeks with a six hour history of reduced fetal movements. This is her first presentation with this symptom. She is generally well and has had midwifery care so far in this pregnancy. She reports that she normally feels her baby move more in the evenings but not so much during the day. She does not have any abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding or history of vaginal fluid leak. You have been asked to undertake an initial assessment...

    100 Cases in Obstetrics and Gynaecology presents 100 obstetric or gynaecology-related scenarios commonly seen by medical students and junior doctors in the emergency department, outpatient clinic or on the ward. A succinct summary of the patient's history, examination and initial investigations, including photographs where relevant, is followed by questions on the diagnosis and management of each case. The answer includes a detailed discussion on each topic, with further illustration where appropriate, providing an essential revision aid as well as a practical guide for students and junior doctors.

    Making speedy and appropriate clinical decisions, and choosing the best course of action to take as a result, is one of the most important and challenging parts of training to become a doctor. These true-to-life cases, fully revised and updated for this third edition, will teach students and junior doctors to recognize important obstetric and gynaecological conditions, and to develop their diagnostic and management skills.
