Title: Therapeutic Strategies in Prostate Cancer Author(s): Mark R. Fenely, Heather A. Payney

Publisher: Clinical Publishing

ISBN: 1904392881

Publication: 2007Pages: 285

Description: Prostate cancer accounts for nearly a quarter of all male cancers, and the

incidence is rising as detection rates continue to improve, and life expectancy increases. Timelyintervention affords a wider range of management options and in this new volume the editors

review the choices available. In the first section lifestyle interventions, such as nutrition andscreening, and evaluation of risk factors are discussed; then follows an update on management

strategies for localised and locally advanced cancer in various risk groups, drawing on theresults of the latest clinical trials. The third section of the book looks at advanced cancer

including the management of metastases, and encompasses hormonal and chemotherapy, and palliative care. The

volume concludes with a review of common complications of prostate cancer such as urinary obstruction and erectiledysfunction, and appropriate strategies for pain control. Among the key topics discussed: the evidence for and againstPSA screening; the value of current prognostic models in predicting clinical outcomes; the role of biomarkers inevaluating therapeutic success; How to determine the endpoint of clinical trials; and, new horizons in chemotherapy

for prostate cancer. This new work addresses questions which challenge every clinician involved with the care of 

cancer patients today, and provides authoritative insights into the thinking that will define best practice in future.

Title: Imaging in Oncological Urology Author(s): Jean J.M.C.H. de la Rosette, Michael J. Manyak, Mukesh G. Harisinghani, Hessel Wijkstra

Series: Methods of Cancer Diagnosis, Therapy and Prognosis

Publisher: Springer

ISBN: 1846285143

Publication: 2008

Pages: 464

Description: This book features significant changes witnessed in imaging in oncological conditionsrelated to the bladder, prostate and kidneys and their impact. With prostate cancer being malignancy No.1 in men and bladder cancer and renal cancer becoming more prominent, an increasing number of innovative treatments have become available that require better imaging including information on the

location and extent of the tumors. Particularly in renal cell cancer an increasing number of small tumorsare identified that justifies nefron sparing approaches such as cryosurgery and heat therapies, aprerequisite for which is an adequate follow-up, including imaging. The need for improved imaging is

even bigger for prostate cancer as significant improvements have been made in TransRectal Ultrasound and MRIimaging for lymph node metastases. The sole focus of this book is on oncology in urology, mainly Ultrasound andMRI, with topics being organ oriented. The latest technologies on imaging are included, such as new development in

ultrasound machines, ultrasound contrast media, MRI scanning, including MRI contrast agents, to better identifycarcinomatous lesions and even lymph node metastases. Each chapter is finalized with ´Considerations´, thusreflecting on the optimal imaging approach, providing an algorithm for imaging per disease entity, and according tothe evidence-based chronological and diagnostic follow-up. Imaging in Oncological Urology is a state-of-the-art

reference work on imaging in oncological urology for the urologist, radiologist and medical oncologist.

Title: Pediatric Uroradiology Author(s): A.L. Baert

Series: Medical Radiology / Diagnostic Imaging

Publisher: Springer

ISBN: 3540330046Publication: 2008

Pages: 537

Description: Since the first edition of Pediatric Uroradiology, very significant advances have beenmade in the imaging and treatment of common and important pediatric urologic disorders such as

vesicoureteric reflux, urinary tract infection, and upper urinary tract dilatation. This revised andextended version takes full account of the sometimes dramatic changes. It describes in detail all

aspects of pediatric uroradiology, embracing both recent developments and established concepts.New chapters have been added, for example on genetics in nephrourology and clinical

management of important nephrourologic disorders. Short conclusions are included at the end of chapters and

sections to provide the reader with the key information on the specific topic under consideration. This book will allownot only the (pediatric) radiologist, but also the pediatrician, pediatric surgeon, and urologist to meet the challenges of today s pediatric uroradiology.

Title: Operative Atlas of Laparoscopic Reconstructive Urology Author(s): Manickam Ramalingam, Vipul R. Patel

Publisher: SpringerISBN: 1848001509

Publication: 2008

Pages: 716

Description: This atlas features sequential pictures for most reconstructive urology procedures,also covering laparoscopic assisted procedures such as orthotopic neobladder and ileocystoplasty.Unlike many other titles covering this subject however, illustrations in the majority of chapters in

this work are drawn purely from a single case, allowing the reader to chart such complex surgeries

step-by-step. Laparoscopic assisted procedures drastically reduce the operative time required, andthose surgeons with moderate familiarity with urology and laparoscopic process should be able tocomplete these operations comfortably. Though the use of advanced technology is described, thebook has been constructed in such a way that urologists from both developed and developing countries would be able

to pick up the technical tips featured to perform the laparoscopic procedures also using simplified devices. This book also deals with some of the unusual situations or complications that the vastly experienced authors have personallyfaced in their careers to date, offering problem-solving tips and pitfalls to avoid, accompanied again by diagrams or

photographs where appropriate. Finally, a CD-ROM featuring videos of many of the procedures covered in the bodyof the text is packaged with the book, to offer a comprehensive read for all practicing urologists and surgical traineesacross the globe.

Title: Handbook of Urologic Cryoablation Author(s): Daniel Rukstalis, Aaron E. Katz

Publisher: Informa HealthCare

ISBN: 1841845779Publication: 2007

Pages: 192

Description: As prostate cancer is the most common type of cancer found in men, the clinical and

surgical commitments to treating it are enormous, as well as to be expected given the aging malepopulation. Urologic cryotherapy is one such method for those with organ-confined or minimally-

spread prostate cancer. The benefits it offers both patient and surgeon are hugely significant: it isminimally invasive, has a favourable success rate and complication rates, is followed by a short

period of recuperation, is repeatable if necessary, and costs considerably less than a radicalprostatectomy. Presenting their adroit surgical and extensive teaching experience with urologic

cryoablation in the treatment of renal and prostate cancers, Drs. Daniel Ruskstalis and Aaron Katz,along with a superb team of U.S. contributors, share their mastery of this revolutionary technique with the reader,whether qualified or in-training. An important, accessible guide to a ground-breaking advance in the treatment of prostate cancer, Handbook of Urologic Cryoablation is requisite reading for those urologic surgeons wishing to

perform cryoablation effectively and efficiently for the patient's benefit.

Title: Multidisciplinary Treatment for Prostate Cancer Author(s): Philip Kantoff, MD

Publisher: Springer

ISBN: 9781891483554

Publication: 2007Pages: 89

Description: The prostate cancer field has been changing rapidly over the past two decades sincethe introduction and widespread use of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA). The increase in thenumber of cases diagnosed with prostate cancer that occurred as a result of screening necessitatedrefinements of existing therapies and the development of novel approaches. More recently, a

greater appreciation of a role for active surveillance for selected patients has also developed. Theprimary oncologist should play a central role in helping patients make educated decisions abouttherapy (to treat or not and what is optimal therapy for the individual patient). The changes in the

field have been staggering, and the literature can be confusing. This monograph updates the readeron developments in the field, providing a balanced, state-of-the-art assessment of treatment of early prostate cancer. It

updates the reader on established forms of therapy, including external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) and brachytherapy,the evolving role of minimally invasive surgery and combination therapies, and, finally, on future directions. In hischapter, Dr. Mack Roach from the University of California at San Francisco gives us his perspective on the role of 

brachytherapy in early prostate cancer; in particular, in the area of patient selection. In his comprehensive discussionof external beam radiation, he focuses his attention on trials that have demonstrated that survival and/or biochemical(PSA) control rates are improved with the addition of either short-term or long-term androgen-deprivation therapy

(ADT) to EBRT, on trials that have demonstrated that biochemical control rates can be improved with the use of higher doses of radiation, and on the emerging role of three-dimensional conformal radiation or intensity- modulatedradiotherapy techniques, which permit the delivery of high doses of radiation safely. Dr. Hu and colleagues from the

Brigham and Women’s Hospital review the latest in different techniques for performing radical prostatectomy,

including minimally invasive surgery, an increasingly popular approach. Although this is a rapidly evolving field, theoncologist needs to be aware of the latest in these approaches. The next two chapters explore integrated approaches.Dr. Sartor from the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute builds on Dr. Roach’s chapter with a thorough review of the

different forms of ADT, the evolving appreciation of side effects of ADT, and the role of ADT in early disease inparticular when used in conjunction with radiation. He points out, however, the failure of ADT to provide a benefit

when used before surgery. Finally, he discusses the potential role of adjuvant ADT in high-risk patients; currently thesubject of clinical trials. Drs. Febbo and George from Duke University review the integration of chemotherapy into

early prostate cancer treatment. Many small trials have been conducted, and we await the results of the trials that arewell outlined in this chapter. Finally, looking to the future of therapy for prostate cancer, the last chapter reviewssome of the agents under investigation, which, if they prove to be efficacious, may find their way into the

multimodality management of early disease. It is hoped that this monograph gives the practicing oncologist usefuland current information to help guide patients through the difficult decision-making process surrounding thediagnosis of early prostate cancer.

Title: Pediatric Endourology Techniques Author(s): Prasad P. GodbolePublisher: Springer

ISBN: 1846283868Publication: 2007

Pages: 140

Description: This book comprehensively covers the practical aspects of the various endourologicalprocedures in children. The interactive nature not only gives the theoretical aspects but, also, thetechnical aspects of the procedures involved to enable the surgeon to read and watch the procedurebeforehand, including some helpful tips and tricks to make the procedure easier and safer.

Audiovisual aids serve as a very useful adjunct to the training process. A ready reference manual, this

book does not cover the theory of the underlying conditions (for which there are excellent textbooks).Aimed at all pediatric urology and pediatric surgery trainees and consultants across the board, it willalso be of great benefit to the adult surgeons who occasionally deal with children.

Publication: 2008

Pages: 268

Description: Robotic surgery is in a phase of worldwide rapid evolution. Data from many centersindicate that urologists are achieving equivalent, or better, operative outcomes using a roboticlaparoscopic interface compared with their open results. Patients benefit from quicker convalescence,less pain, and shorter hospital stays. The multi-authored international text covers the robotic operative

procedures in urology that are routinely performed today and still in evolution. It focuses on robotic

radical prostatectomy and includes robotic procedures for the kidney, adrenal gland, and urinarybladder. The most essential steps are depicted in illustrations. This book should contribute to the supportof new robotic teams and continue to popularize robotic urology.

Title: Atlas of Urogynecological Endoscopy 

Author(s): Peter L. DwyerSeries: Encyclopedia of Visual Medicine

Publisher: Informa Healthcare

ISBN: 184184540X

Publication: 2007

Pages: 208

Description: The study of gynecology and pelvic floor disorders is a rapidly developing area forgynecologists around the world, and, moreover, an essential aspect to the diagnosis and treatment of 

pelvic floor disorders is a need for expertise in cystourethroscopy to accurately diagnose conditionsof the lower urinary tract that frequently present to the gynecologists. However, gynecologists havelittle training or expertise in the use of cystourethroscopy and therefore often do not feel

comfortable in performing this procedure or distinguishing what is normal from what is abnormal.An excellent guide for educating gynecologists in endoscopy of the urinary tract, this highly

illustrated text addresses this need and provides readers with a full understanding of the equipment

that is used, how it is used, and the conditions of the lower urinary tract they may find in the treatment of pelvicdisorders.

Title: Acquired Cystic Disease of the Kidney and Renal Cell Carcinoma: Complication of Long-

Term Dialysis Author(s): Isao Ishikawa

Publisher: Springer

ISBN: 443169479XPublication: 2007

Pages: 111Description: The detailed and comprehensive observations presented in this book on acquired cysticdisease of the kidney and renal cell carcinoma in dialysis patients are drawn from the authors nearly

three decades of experience. Beginning with the first clinical case in 1978 and including subsequentfollow-up studies and questionnaires, the volume is an excellent clinical reference for practicingphysicians. As the author makes clear, it is essential that examination before operations for renaltransplantation should include imaging of the original kidneys. Extensive use of color illustrations and

numerous case studies assist the reader in understanding the nature of acquired renal cystic disease and

renal cell carcinoma, how they are diagnosed, and how screening should be conducted for renal cell carcinoma indialysis patients. This essential information has never been more important than now, in view of the growing numberof hemodialysis patients.
