Treatment Options in Urological Cancer
J. Waxman

Cancer forms a large part of urological practice. Prostate cancer is the most significant and is the second commonest cause of male cancer deaths with some 300,000 cases in the USA annually. Cancer of the bladder is also common. Whilst treatment has been primarily surgical, recent years have seen an explosion of new drug therapies for urological cancers.All urologists, whether in training or in practice, need an up to date survey of the literature and key findings in this important and controversial field.This book takes each organ in turn (prostate, kidney, bladder, testis and penis) tackles the controversies head-on by inviting chapters on various (often rival) treatments for each disease. Each section is then concluded by a commentary from the editor which draws together the various strands, outlines the principal areas of consensus and disagreement.
