Close Window Preface The first edition of Williams Obstetrics was published over a century ago. Since then, the editors of this seminal text have presented a comprehensive and evidence-based discussion of obstetrics. Patterned after our patriarch, Williams Gynecology provides a thorough presentation of gynecology's depth and breadth. In Section 1, general gynecology topics are covered, whereas Sections 2 through 4 offer content on the gynecologic subspecialties. Of note, the developing field of female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery is presented. Traditionally, gynecologic information has been offered either within the format of a didactic text or that of a surgical atlas. However, because the day-to-day activities of a gynecologist blend these two, so too do we. The initial five sections of our book describe the evaluation and medical treatment of gynecologic problems. The remaining section offers an illustrated atlas for the surgical correction of these conditions. Discussions of disease evaluation and treatment are evidence based, and our text strives to assist the practicing gynecologist and resident. Accordingly, chapters are extensively complemented by illustrations, photographs, diagnostic algorithms, and treatment tables.

The world's first degree in medical illustration was awarded by Southwestern Medical School in 1947. This is one of five accredited medical illustration programs in North America. For those accepted into the program, a Master of Arts degree in Biomedical Communications—Biomedical Illustration is offered by Southwestern Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences at The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. The program is two years in length and a maximum of seven students is now enrolled annually. The program is offered through the Department of Biomedical Communications, and courses are taught by faculty of The University of Texas Southwestern Medical School, Southwestern Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, and Southwestern Allied Health Sciences School. The program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs and the Association of Medical Illustrators. Mr. Lewis E. Calver has been Program Chairman since 1980. The program is interdisciplinary. It is designed to provide opportunities for development of special knowledge and skills in the application of communications arts and technology to the health sciences. Study of human anatomy, cell biology, neurobiology, and pathology is combined with experience in anatomical, surgical, editorial and advertising illustration, computer graphics and animation, graphic design, multimedia production, interactive computer assisted instruction, and instructional design. Additional skills may also be developed in biological illustration, three-dimensional media production, exhibit design, and photography. Primary Atlas Artists Lewis E.

GRIFFITH ASSISTANT PROFESSOR, DEPARTMENT OF OBSTRETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY, UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS SOUTHWESTERN MEDICAL CENTER, DALLAS Related To: Chapter 29. Preinvasive Lesions of the Lower Genital Tract View in chapter Overview Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected women are known to have a high burden of human papilloma virus (HPV)-associated anogenital disease. This lower genital tract disease manifests as a spectrum of lesions, which ranges from condyloma to high- grade, high-malignant potential cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN), and anal intraepithelial neoplasia (AIN) lesions. The association between cervical dysplasia, cervical carcinoma, and human papilloma virus (HPV) infection is clearly established (Bosch, 2002). However, the etiologic contribution of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the development of lower genital tract disease is unclear and currently under evaluation. Specifically, areas of attention include the effect of HIV serostatus in the acquisition, regression, persistence, or progression of HPV infection. The relationship between HIV and HPV infections may involve mechanisms that integrate virus to virus interactions, immune factors, and molecular pathogenesis, and all of these mechanisms can impact normal cell cycle machinery (Clarke, 2001). Although evidence to date establishes HPV as the etiologic agent causing cervical intraepithelial and invasive neoplasia (Mahdavi, 2005), HPV infection is generally uneventful and transient in HIV-seronegative women. In contrast, recent studies have shown that HIV-positive women have a higher prevalence and longer persistence of cervical HPV infection. HPV is detected in more than 60 percent of women with HIV (Stover, 2003). In addition, these women have a higher probability of carrying multiple oncogenic HPV types than that of HIV-negative women (Ahdieh, 2001; Brown, 1994; Palefsky, 1999). The effects of HIV can also be seen in the rates of disease progression. For example, early during the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) epidemic, Maiman and colleagues (1990) noted in a study cohort that all HIV-positive women with cervical cancer died from their cancer compared with only 37 percent of HIV-seronegative women with cervical cancer. Because of this and similar studies, cervical cancer is now designated as an AIDS defining condition by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Lower Genital Tract Intraepithelial Neoplasia Studies consistently suggest that HIV-positive women have much higher rates of CIN compared with HIV-uninfected women (Ellerbrock, 2000; Wright, 1994). For example, in women infected with HIV, up to 60 percent of Pap smears exhibit cytologic abnormalities, and as many as 40 percent have colposcopic evidence of dysplasia. Maiman and associates (1998) report that these rates are approximately 10 times greater than those observed among HIV-negative women. In contrast, much less information is available regarding vulvar, vaginal, and anal intraepithelial neoplasia in these women. However, a recent 6-year prospective study did compare HIV-positive with HIV-negative women at high risk for HIV and found an eightfold increase in the rates of vulvar, vaginal, and perianal lesions in HIV-positive women (Jamieson, 2006). Moreover, Chin- Hong and associates (2005) found a higher prevalence of HPV-associated anogenital disease in women with HIV compared to age-
