1st Edition
by Christopher R. J. Woodhouse (Author)
Adolescent Urology and Long-Term
Outcomes provides urologists and pediatric urologists with a
comprehensive and expert clinical guide to the main urologic problems
that can occur during adolescence.
Fully covering disorders
related to sex and genital development, the kidney, bladder, ureta and
urethra, Professor Woodhouse, a world-leading expert and global pioneer
in this field systematically outlines the best clinical practice in the
surgical and medical management of these complex and extremely
challenging conditions, as well covering the long-term outcome for the
patient.
Given the sensitive nature of these problems and their
effect on adolescent patients, attention is paid to the psychological
aspect of such disorders: especially how best to manage patients
struggling to come to terms with what are very personal and complex
issues at what is often a difficult and turbulent period of their life.
Well-illustrated
with over 120 figures including step-by-step surgical diagrams
throughout, chapters will also include a unique “voice of the experts”
feature – a running dialogue between leading experts and Prof Woodhouse
on the topic in question.
This modern, expert guide to adolescent
urologic problems from one of the leading names in the field will be an
essential tool for modern-day urologists and urologic surgeons,
especially those specialising in pediatric patients, as well as
pediatricians and endocrinologists.
