TeLinde’s Operative Gynecology has been the premier text in the field of gynecologic surgery for more than 60 years. This text covers all aspects of gynecologic surgery—from the most general topics of surgical ethics to instruction on detailed surgical procedures. General background/pathology for surgical problems is covered as are patient/treatment selection, step-by-step surgical techniques, and post-operative concerns.

For this updated Tenth Edition, an online website has been added with fully searchable text and videos of several surgical procedures including: para-aortic node dissection, avascular spaces of the pelvis, pelvic node dissection, hypogastric artery ligation, and presacral neurectomy. Also, a new online chapter on robotics has been added.

Established for over 50 years as the world's leading gynecologic surgery reference, TeLinde's Operative Gynecology is now in its revised Ninth Edition. This classic text remains rooted in the Johns Hopkins school of surgical thought and provides encyclopedic coverage of the etiology, diagnosis, and step-by-step surgical treatment of benign and malignant diseases and disorders of the female pelvis. More than 1,200 illustrations demonstrate the surgical techniques.

For the Ninth Edition, the eminent gynecologic oncologist Howard W. Jones, III, MD joins Dr. Rock as co-editor. More than one-third of the chapters--including those on gynecologic oncology and urogynecology--have been written by new contributors.
