The field of androgen excess disorders has advanced substantially since the original publication of this book. The Androgen Excess Society (AES) was founded to bring together investigators in the field. A better understanding of the screening, progression, and molecular genetics of nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia (NCAH) has improved the clinical care and diagnostic accuracy of these patients. New criteria for the diagnosis of the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) were proposed in Rotterdam, criteria that have resulted in controversy and, hopefully, initiation of new studies. The association of insulin resistance with PCOS has been strengthened, and the role of metformin in tre- ing the infertility of the PCOS has been validated. Risks for diabetes and, more cont- versially, cardiovascular disease in women with PCOS have received substantial investigation. Our understanding of the epidemiology and economic impact of these disorders has expanded, emphasizing their critical importance. These are but a few highlights of how the terrain has changed in a relatively brief period of time. In keeping with these advances, the title of this book has been revised to reflect the growing importance of PCOS as the most prevalent androgen excess disorder in women, and arguably, as the one that might have the most serious adverse consequences for general health. There are fewer chapters to provide a more focused elucidation of the area. Several chapters were penned by new (and young) authors who are conducting cutting-edge research in the field.

L'infertilité touche de plus en plus de personnes à travers le monde, dont près d'un  couple sur huit en France. Publié dans la collection référente de la gynécologie obstétrique, sous l'égide du CNGOF, cet ouvrage se veut un manuel pratique de  référence sur le sujet. Tous les aspects de l'infertilité du couple sont abordés, des avancées technologiques de la PMA aux enjeux éthiques et sociétaux. Une centaine d'éminents  experts (gynécologues, obstétriciens, médecins de la reproduction mais aussi  biologistes, échographistes et psychologues) réunis par le Professeur René Frydman,  apportent leurs connaissances et savoir-faire dans cet ouvrage didactique et  richement documenté. L'ouvrage s'articule autour de quatre grands axes :  l'approche de l'infertilité : l'abord des patients et toutes les étapes et techniques  permettant le diagnostic ;  la PMA : le panorama complet des technologies actuelles adaptées à chaque  cas, y compris la partie laboratoire ;  les situations particulières : de nombreux cas sont envisagés comme le diagnostic  pré-implantatoire, le don d'ovocytes, les mères porteuses, la prise en charge de  couples sérodiscordants, de couples homosexuels, de mères célibataires... ; les thèmes d'avenir pour évoquer les innovations les plus prometteuses. Cette nouvelle édition a été entièrement mise à jour, elle intègre toutes les  données récentes et les dernières évolutions de la recherche, aussi bien dans le  diagnostic que dans les traitements.
