How it begins

A detailed technical treatise on the diagnosis, hemodynamic stabilization, and surgical approach to genitourinary tract emergencies. It ranges from the molecular dynamics of obstructive nephropathy and endotoxic shock due to urosepsis, to surgical reconstruction algorithms in severe trauma, low-flow priapism and perineal necrotizing infections.
