treatment options available, tested approaches to evaluation and
postoperative management, and features an emphasis on newer technologies
in prosthetic surgery. For practitioners
Review "The book is best suited for the practicing urologist, but can also be
used by the medical student and other interested allied healthcare
professionals. The authors are all credible and well-known. The book
spans the entire gamut of urologic prostheses, including tissue
engineering, injectables, various stents and finally penile prostheses.
The best features are the short concise chapters written by respected
authorities in the field. All the chapters are quite comprehensive.
This is a high-quality, well written, timely book. This is unique in the
field, for there are few, if any similar books. A book such as this is
needed to keep the practitioner updated on these ever-changing matters."
-Doody's Health Sciences Book Review Journal
"The layout
of the book is clear and logical and the structure of each of the
individual author's contributions is uniform and well illustrated...a
useful reference text for trainees in urology and urologists who
practice prosthetic surgery." -ANZ J. Surg.
