Recent Progress in Urology Research Timothy Lawson

The area of study related to the diseases of the male and female urinary-tract system and the male reproductive organs is known as urology. The kidneys, urinary bladder, adrenal glands, testes, prostate, seminal vesicles and penis are some of the organs studied under the branch of urology. Both the urinary tract and the reproductive tract are closely associated with each other. Therefore, the diseases of one usually affect the other. Examples of urological disorders include urinary-tract infections, prostate cancer, traumatic injury, kidney stones, congenital abnormalities, etc. Minimally invasive robotic surgery and laparoscopic surgery are two common ways to treat urological disorders. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to urology. It strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a thorough understanding of the subject.
