Overactive Bladder: Practical Management provides urologists, gynecologists and other health practitioners
with a comprehensive clinical guide to this very common problem, resulting in a perfect resource to consult
time and time again.

Beginning with an introductory section covering the definition and pathophysiolgy of OAB, it then moves on
to cover evaluation, first-line management, second-line management and finally surgery.

Well-illustrated throughout, each chapter begins with a key points box outlining the most important take-
home messages. Also included are clear management algorithms to aid decision-making, 'Do's and Don't' boxes
to help avoid errors made, key references to the top journal articles, and the very latest guidelines from
the EAU, AUA and other major urology societies.

Chapters are written by the top names in the field and the entire book is expertly edited by Jacques
Corcos, John Heesakkers and Scott MacDiarmid. The result is a consistent, comprehensive and fully up to
date approach to OAB, providing urologists managing patients with this condition with rapid access,
specialist clinical guidance.
