Bladder Pathology — Surgical and Urological Specialization Treaty

Surgery · Clinical Specialties

How it begins

An exhaustive scientific and technical compendium, aimed at specialists in urological surgery and pelvic oncology. It thoroughly addresses embryology, advanced urodynamics, complex fistulas, management of non-muscle-invasive and muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma, extended lymphadenectomy, orthotopic pouches, and rescue of bladder surgical complications.
