Reviews

From the reviews:

“Editor Howard Goldman, with the help of nearly 40 contributors who are recognised experts in the field of female urology, aimed to produce a comprehensive textbook which contains 20 chapters dedicated to the complications of surgical management of incontinence, prolapse, pelvic disorders and reconstructive procedures. … This well-illustrated textbook is an excellent tool for all urologists and gynecologists involved in the management of incontinence and pelvic disorders. Comprehensive and practical information is available, and makes it useful for certified practitioners and trainees.” (European Urology Today, Vol. 25 (1), January-February, 2013)

“The book beings by discussing the need for taxonomy of complications of pelvic floor surgery. … It is well referenced and the reference list at the end of each chapter is helpful for those who wish to do further reading. … This book is aimed at anyone dealing with pelvic reconstructive surgery. … this is a very informative well referenced book that is clear and easy to follow, and allows for a thorough understanding of the complications of incontinence and pelvic reconstructive surgery.” (The Obstetrician & Gyneocologist, Vol. 15 (2), 2013)

“The intended audience includes general urologists and gynecologists who perform pelvic floor surgeries as well as current and future specialists in female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery, and the authors have appropriately structured the book for them. By covering common procedures as well as those performed mainly by experts, the authors provide something for everyone. … This is a well-written and well-structured book that will be a great resource for anyone involved with female incontinence and pelvic reconstruction.” (Bradley Figler, Doody’s Review Service, November, 2012)
