From challenges presented in everyday clinical practice to the complex cases without simple answers, Challenging Cases in Urological Surgery is an effective reference and revision aid for trainees and consultants alike.
As part of the Challenging Cases series, cases are examined from a multidisciplinary approach considering all aspects of diagnostic, practical and evidence-based skills to provide a comprehensive and detailed demonstration of clinical investigation within real-world scenarios.
With contributions from over 40 experienced and renowned consultants from the UK, the opinions within the 'Expert Commentary' includes an insight into real world case management and problem solving in complex cases. Using the most up-to-date evidence and clinical presentations highlighted in the UK ISCP curriculum, this book features the use of 'Clinical Tips', 'Evidence Base' and 'Future Advances' text boxes to highlight critical information in an easy-to-read format for efficient and
effective learning.
This book is split into 15 comprehensive sections; these include Urinary Tract Infection, Bladder Cancer, Male Infertility and Sexual Dysfunction and Emergency Urology and Trauma among other key areas in the field of Urology. Each chapter is a case-based guide which provides readers with practical yet clinically relevant advice on management of urological surgery cases.
With every-day clinical observations, controversial topics and challenging cases, this book is a highly valuable resource for all those interested in urological surgery, trainees in the field and those sitting postgraduate urology examinations.
