Impending famine and a terrifying rate of consumption of natural resources are vital issues which have focussed public interest in the ecologic, social and political problems of ever increasing overpopulation in many countries of the world. As well as the vast material and intellectual expenditure lavished on family planning and birth control, the past decade has seen an immense research effort in the elaboration of improved methods of fertility control, both for men and for women. During the same period, however, research into the causes of male fertility disorders has proceeded with equal...

Volume XV "Urology in Childhood" was written in 1956/57 and was the first in the series of the Encyclopedia of Urology to appear. This present volume has been constructed as a supplement and the original intention was to deal only with those subjects in which there have been significant advances during the intervening sixteen years. As the work has proceeded, however, it has become evident that there is no aspect of paediatric urology which has not been developed, and no topic which has not been illuminated by many contributions to the literature. Indeed, there has been such a copious flow of...

There has been great progress in ureteral surgery in the last twenty years. The predominant indication is still calculous obstruction but reparative and plastic surgery of the ureter for congenital and acquired lesions are among the most interesting advances in modern urology. The essential goal of this surgery is to ensure free flow of the urine from the kidney to the bladder and so to preserve or improve kidney function which is always affected or threatened by any defect in the excretory pathway. The ideal is to re-establish a closed circuit flow from kidney to bladder by repair or...

Funetional disorders of the urinary traet ean often be detected by means of...

Von E. WILDBOLZ In den letzten Jahren ist die Pyelonephritis, vor allem die chronische Pyelo nephritis, immer mehr in den Brennpunkt des medizinischen Interesses geruckt. Klinische und anatomische Arbeiten zeigen ihr ausserordentlich haufiges Vor kommen. Sie ist heute die bedeutendste Gruppe der Nierenerkrankungen, ja sie hat sogar die Infektionen der Atemorgane von ihrem ersten Rang in der Haufigkeitsskala aller Infektionskrankheiten bei Spitalpatienten verdrangt. Auch der langsam Reagierende muss sich Rechenschaft davon ablegen, dass hinter der harmlosen Etikette einer chronischen Pyurie,...
