Sommario/riassunto

Urological Emergencies in Clinical Practice, Second Edition, is a well-researched pocket book that provides a comprehensive summary of urological emergencies and their management, in a form that is concise, relevant to the target audience and readily available. While the description of each emergency condition is comprehensive, the emphasis is on the practical approach to the conditions which are likely to be encountered. Since the first edition, there have been new guidelines published by the European Association of Urology which are incorporated in the new edition of this book. Furthermore this edition contains a chapter on pediatric urological emergencies.   For the doctor or nurse expected to provide the initial assessment and management of a condition with which he or she has had very limited experience, Urological Emergencies in Clinical Practice, Second Edition will provide an invaluable source of information and advice.
