The subject texts, Operative Gynaecology, Volume I & 2 is a surgical two volume textbook on diseases and operations involving the female reproductive system, written by Howard A. Kelly and illustrated in part by Max Brödel. In the division between Volume 1 and Volume 2 there follows a logical anatomical and procedural split. Whereas Volume 1 concentrates on fundamental surgical principles, diagnostics, and operations on the lower genital/urinary tract. Volume 2 shifts focus to intra-abdominal, pelvic, and major organ surgeries. Volume 2 transitions into major intra-abdominal procedures (laparotomies/celiotomies) involving internal reproductive organs and neighbouring abdominal structures.
The books are a technical, richly illustrated manuals for gynaecological surgery rather than a general medicine text. Its subject is operative treatment, anatomy, instruments, procedures, and surgical technique in women’s diseases, reflecting the early 20th-century development of gynaecology as a specialised surgical field.
