WEST, STANLEY WITH PAULA DRANOV

The Hysterectomy Hoax a Leading Surgeon Explains Why 90% of All Hysterectom Ies Are Unnecessary

NY: Doubleday, 1994. First Edition. Hardcover; First Printing. ISBN: 0385468199. Binding, DJ and Contents are almost like new. ; 9-1/2" Tall, 214pp. Gray boards, black cloth spine, bright silver lettering. MEDICAL. "There are more than 600000 hysterectomies performed in the United States each year, and, according to Dr. West, no more than 10 percent of them are truly necessary...West takes a public stand against hysterectom y in virtually all circumstances except when a woman has cancer. In fact, he contends, there is compelling evidence that the operation does more harm than good and therefore presents an unacceptable risk except in the face of life-threatening illness. In every other instance when a hysterectomy is routinely performed, there is an alternative treatment or surgery - clearly explained in this book - that is much less dangerous and devastating.
