Functional Reconstruction of the Female Urinary Tract and Gynaeco-Urology, 2nd Edition

Functional Reconstruction of the Female Urinary Tract and Gynaeco-Urology is a comprehensive reference text covering the entire field of reconstructive female urology. It delivers in-depth knowledge of the structure, function, and dysfunction of the female urinary tract, along with the principles of urodynamics related to lower urinary tract reconstruction. This second edition retains many original descriptions from the first edition in tribute to Richard Turner-Warwick, considered the father of functional urological reconstruction in the United Kingdom, with text and comments updated to reflect developments in the field. The book presents detailed descriptions of surgical principles and procedures supported by 1,600 colour illustrations based on original drawings by Paul Richardson. It also includes "tricks of the trade," "pearls of wisdom," and other original concepts, as well as the principles, art, and philosophy of surgery, details on instruments and surgical access to the urinary tract, and information on the surgical management of conditions encountered in clinical practice. As a one-of-a-kind reference, it serves surgeons at any level of practice regardless of training or experience, and is also valuable for advanced students in related programmes of study.
