Description
Summary:This book emphasizes the importance of combining the skills of surgeon, radiotherapist and medical oncologist in the management of patients with malignant tumors of the urinary tract. After introductory chapters on radiation therapy, chemotherapy and immunotherapy, the individual urological tumors are discussed. The volume examines the increasing role of surgical preservations and reconstruction and the role played by clinical trials. Other factors such as quality of life and cost of treatment are also dealt with. The assessment of therapeutic possibilities is unique; no other volume is devoted to combination therapy as such in urological malignancy.
