Emergencies in Urology

Emergencies in Urology is a comprehensive textbook covering one of
the few remaining white spots on the map of urological literature. To
date only a small number of publications have been dedicated to the
topic of urgent and emergent problems in urology ? important as these
are in our daily clinical life.Therefore the editors, both of them
internationally recognized urological experts, have taken the effort
to present an in-depth study into virtually every possible urgent
urological situation with which a urologist may be confronted today.
Consequently, the book includes chapters on topics such as urological
trauma, urosepsis, urinary obstruction, oncological emergencies,
intra- and postoperative complications, acute problems in children,
and many more.To obtain the best possible expertise in such a wide
field, renowned expert authors have contributed their experience to
this book. They did so not only by writing the regular book chapters
but also by delivering short stories about urgent situations they
encountered in their own professional life. These vignettes are one
of the rare opportunities where experience can be relayed without
restriction from one urological generation to the next.Much work has
gone into the illustrations for the book. Foremost in this respect is
the art of Stephan Spitzer, one of the leading medical illustrators
of today.The result is a comprehensive, well-organized text, in which
state-of-the-art know-how, didactic algorithms, personal experience
and detailed illustrations are combined into a unique guide of how to
manage urological emergencies.
