Reviews

“The Editors solicited many contributors from a wide range of esteemed, well-respected and experienced urologic laparoscopic and/or robotic surgeons to discuss the difficult situations one may encounter during a certain operation, and also offer tips and tricks on how to handle these circumstances and respective trouble-shooting approaches. … One of the advantages of this book is that it can be an excellent reference when urologists face uncommon challenging cases.” (Jeff Shihchieh Chueh, Urology, August, 2018)
