Recent research and clinical work have demonstrated that the rapid urologic innovation in minimally invasive treatment is creating exciting new horizons in endourology. This sixth volume in the series Recent Advances in Endourology brings that knowledge to a wider audience, focusing on the new concept of endourooncology, which is the merging of endourology and oncology. In the surgical treatment of urologic malignancies, bipolarization - that is, radical extended resection or organ-sparing surgery - is making remarkable advances. Further developments in sophisticated...

Fehlinterpretation von Befunden, Fehleinschatzung des therapeutisch Notwendigen und Machbaren - eine Kettenreaktion, die letztendlich zur 'Komplikation' fuhrt. Die retrospektive kritische Fehleranalyse, ein bisher ungewohnlicher Weg der wissenschaftlichen Auseinandersetzung, soll dazu beitragen, eigenes Fehlverhalten zu erkennen und kunftig zu vermeiden. Eine wichtige Informationsquelle fur alle operativ tatigen Urologen.

-In einer Zeit, in der Komplikations- und Qualitatsmanagement eine zunehmende Wertigkeit erfahren, ermuntert dieses Werk zum selbstkritischen und nuchternen...

Urolithiasis, or stone disease occurs in 7% of women and 12% of men at some point, and these statistics are rising. Furthermore, for those who form a stone, the likelihood of a recurrence is nearly 50% within 5 years of initial diagnosis. Therefore, the need for effective, minimally invasive alternatives for stone eradication and prevention is critical. Because stone disease comprises a large part of any urologist s practice, a thorough knowledge of the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of stone disease is critical in order to understand and implement treatment strategies to prevent stone...

In the 6 years since the publication of the first volume of Recent Advances in Endourology by the Japanese Society of Endourology and ESWL, data on long-term oncological or functional outcomes have been collected in several related fields, and advances in surgical techniques and improved instrumentation have led to further development of such complex surgery as laparoscopic partial nephrectomy and radical prostatectomy. This seventh volume in the series focuses on the treatment of urogenital malignancies by endourological procedures, including laparoscopic surgery with robotic assistance....
