Ureteroscopy

Ureteroscopy: Indications, Instrumentation & Technique provides a comprehensive and state-of-the-art review of ureteroscopy and will serve as a valuable resource for urologists throughout the world.  The volume provides evidence based outcomes to support the expanding indications for ureteroscopy as well as a strong emphasis on appropriate patient selection.  The book also provides detailed recommendations for the step-by-step approach to ureteroscopy from both an instrumentation and techniques perspective.  The work is extensively illustrated with endoscopic images and accompanied by a web site of video clips which further highlight the clinical application of available endoscopic techniques. The text also includes highly practical presentations of complex endourologic case presentations with expert analysis and editorial commentary.  Example cases would include common but challenging cases of ureteroscopy for transitional cell cancer, horseshoe kidneys, hutch diverticulum, and pregnancy. 

Ureteroscopy: Indications, Instrumentation & Technique provides a unique and valuable resource in the field of ureteroscopy and will include basic instructions for those currently in training or those who have yet to adapt intrarenal ureteroscopy into their surgical armamentarium.  Advanced ureteroscopic approaches are also covered for those wishing to enrich their current clinical expertise.

From the reviews:

“This extensive book provides detailed yet concise chapters on all aspects of ureteroscopy. … this book should be in the collections of all urologists and urology residents. … It also would prove useful to operating room personnel who deal routinely with ureteroscopy. … This book meets all of its objectives as a definitive book on ureteroscopy. The chapters are comprehensive and well written, the color pictures are clear and instructive, and the accompanying DVD provides useful supplementary material.” (Sanjay Kasturi, Doody’s Book Reviews, March, 2013)
