Foreword
The field of female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery (FPMRS) continues to evolve, and this second edition of Female Pelvic Surgery serves to mirror that evolution. Each chapter and author has been carefully selected to further the mission that the combined boards of urology and gynecology sought to develop with collaborative experiences to serve the best needs of our patients. A few things have transpired since the last version of this book. The continual reassessment of the role for vaginal mesh use certainly adds more questions to our ever-changing practices. Still, complications with pelvic reconstructive surgery do occur, and this book serves as a fantastic reference piece to how best to avoid complications but also how to correct them should they occur. Gender confirmation surgery is coming into a specialty of its own, and a dedicated chapter to this has been added to keep the readers current on some of the latest concepts in this field. While FPRMS surgeons have to adapt to our changing landscape, patients should be reassured that the trainees graduating now are in possession of excellent skills and wide experiences that keep them at the cutting edge of the art and science of surgery.
