Complications of Urologic Surgery: Prevention and Management 4th Edition






It is the intent of this fourth edition of Complications of Urologic Surgery: Prevention and Management to provide both general and specific guidelines for surgeons in the management of most common, and many uncommon, urologic surgery complications. The response to the third edition of the book has been uniformly positive with many commenting on its tremendous utility in preparing for both a urologic career and day to day practice. Using this helpful feedback the author have structured the book’s fourth edition. Over the 10 years since the author began constructing the third edition, urologic surgery has changed dramatically. The rapid growth and adoption of minimally invasive techniques and surgical technologies have altered the way we perform most common procedures and, in doing so, have changed the way we train urologists in residency. As a direct result, urologists less frequently perform open surgery and conventional transurethral procedures. Understanding complications of these procedures is perhaps of greater importance now because contemporary urologists have less experience with these procedures.

As such, in this fourth edition the author have tried to balance the content between contemporary and classic techniques by including more chapters that specifically focus on minimally invasive procedures, laparoscopic surgery, and robotic surgery. Open surgical techniques remain a focus of the book with inclusion of additional chapters on specific procedures such as partial nephrectomy, orthotopic neobladder, and transurethral bladder tumor resection. Classic chapters from the third edition such as transurethral resection of the prostate and perineal prostatectomy have been re-printed as little could be added to the work of the previous authors.

The additional chapters, along with the online case studies and multiple-choice questions, offer expanded utility for the book and a continued positive response among readers in the decade to come.
