Dedication
With appreciation to all who have supported the residency training program in Gynecology and Obstetrics at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
This book is dedicated:
T o the families of the house officers, without whose support and sacrifices none of us would be where we are today.
To the faculty, whose advocacy and efforts have affirmed a training program as strong as it is.
And to the mentors, the giants on whose shoulders we stand.
Introduction
We are currently in the midst of an era of incredible change. New means of communications and technologic advances have taken over the worlds of medicine and education. The growth of innovative electronics and computer science has paved the way for methods for diagnosis and therapy that would never have been considered earlier. Not only has this burst of energy contributed to extended longevity and quality of life, but it has also had a major influence on the need for rapid and highly effective transmission of knowledge. In the field of obstetrics and gynecology, we have witnessed the introduction of new minimally invasive surgical techniques. Sophisticated robotic equipment is now standard in the operating room. New diagnostic tools have changed our management of abnormal cervical cytology and focused on a sexually transmittable virus as the cause of cervical cancer. The development of in vitro fertilization 35 years ago has led to our ability to cryopreserve not only embryos but eggs as well, opening new avenues for conception and family building. Many men formerly thought to be hopelessly infertile now have the opportunity to father their own offspring, thanks to direct intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Prenatal diagnosis currently can be carried out for certain inheritable diseases by delicate genetic studies on an individual cell removed from an embryo prior to its transfer into the uterus and implantation. All of the examples alluded to as well as many others have either been refined or developed since publication of the previous (fourth) edition of The Johns Hopkins Manual of Gynecology and Obstetrics in 2011. Such new information is included in the fifth edition.
The first edition of The Johns Hopkins Manual of Gynecology and Obstetrics was published in 1999. The original concept for the Hopkins manual arose during informal discussions with Timothy Johnson, then a faculty member at Johns Hopkins and currently Chair of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Michigan. The plan was to place responsibility for the preparation of each chapter in the hands of a resident physician who would partner together with a faculty member whose field of expertise matched the material covered in that particular chapter. Over the years, this team effort has resulted in a book which continues to serve as a trusted companion for house officers, medical students, and practitioners. The “manual,” combining the skills of our faculty and residents, has also contributed markedly to the camaraderie in the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics at Johns Hopkins.
It is exciting and most fitting that one of the senior residents assigned to serve as coeditor is Clark Johnson, Tim Johnson's son. Clark recently completed his residency and currently serves as a fellow in Maternal—Fetal Medicine at Johns Hopkins. The tradition of the manual and of the Johnson family thus continues into the fifth edition.
