Description

Offering a concise, highly visual approach to the basic science and clinical pathology of the reproductive system, this updated volume in The Netter Collection of Medical Illustrations (the CIBA "Green Books") contains unparalleled didactic illustrations reflecting the latest medical knowledge. Revised by Drs. Roger P. Smith and Paul J. Turek, Reproductive System, Volume 1 integrates core concepts of anatomy, embryology, physiology, and genetics with common clinical correlates across health, medical, and surgical disciplines. Classic Netter art, updated and new illustrations, and modern imaging continue to bring medical concepts to life and make this timeless work an essential resource for students, clinicians, and educators.

Key features

  • Depicts the development, function, and pathology of female, male, and intersex reproductive states.
  • Covers timely topics like preimplantation genetic diagnosis at IVF; transgender medicine and procedures; menorrhagia; a wider variety of dermatoses; nipple discharge; vulvar trauma; treatment options for pelvic floor support; sperm epigenetics and DNA fragmentation; paternal age-related childhood diseases; syndromic sperm problems (PLcZ deficiency); and advanced sperm sorting technology.
  • Provides a concise overview of complex information by seamlessly integrating anatomical and physiological concepts using practical clinical scenarios.
  • Shares the expertise and knowledge of two world-class editors, Drs. Roger Smith (a gynecologist) and Paul Turek (a urologist and microsurgeon), both talented and clear thinkers in the field of reproductive biology and medicine.
  • Compiles Dr. Frank H. Netter’s master medical artistry—an aesthetic tribute and source of inspiration for medical professionals for over half a century—along with new art in the Netter tradition for each of the major body systems, making this volume a powerful and memorable tool for building foundational knowledge and educating patients or staff.
  • NEW! An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud.
