Description

The Generalist's Handbook of Pediatric Urology is intended to be just that. It will provide a guide to diagnosis and management of the urogenital disorders of childhood. The available literature on this important subject is often scattered and so for those who treat children it sometimes is a daunting task to find what they need.This handbook will prove to be immensely useful as it gathers the relevant material in one single volume. It contains many illustrations of urogenital abnormalities and the surgical procedures used to correct them. A number of diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms have been included as well. It is not intended to be encyclopedic but rather an approach or guide based on the more than 50 years of collective experience of the authors. In several different spheres the current controversies regarding diagnosis and/or management will be outlined and the authors' rationale explained.The book is of great worth to all generalist practitioners, not just in improving their skills, but in educating the parents of pediatric patients as well.
