The reader is taken on a step-by-step journey through percutaneous surgery, ureteroscopy, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, laparoscopy, and lower urinary tract procedures, and is given a comprehensive look at the influx of and dynamic changes in robotic and laparascopic procedures, and image-guided technologies. The principles and function of state-of-the-art endourologic instruments are outlined for each procedure.
Now in full-color, the third edition contains 800 extra pages, culminating in an 1800 page, two-volume textbook reflecting the most current advances in endourology. A supplemental DVD includes over 100 high-quality surgical videos allowing you to see endourology in practice.
