Functional urology is that part of urological practice which deals with functional disorders of the lower urinary tract. Among the diseases that cause functional disorders are spina bifida, spinal cord injury, pelvic organ prolapse, and urethral strictures. This book on practical functional urology will help urologists, urogynecologists, and others to diagnose and treat these functional disorders. The theoretical background and scientific basis are summarized, but the emphasis is very much on clinical practice. Diagnosis and treatment are presented for a variety of conditions, including overactive bladder, detrusor underactivity, painful bladder syndrome/interstitial cystitis, prostatitis, stress urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, urinary tract infections, and urethral disorders. The content is based on the EAU guidelines, and for each disorder, helpful tips and tricks are highlighted.
“The first edition of this new title was recently published and aimed to provide functional urologists with a practical amount of information and recommendations. … This well-illustrated textbook offers the reader practical information regarding male and female functional urology and represents a good addition to current literature on the subject.” (European Urology Today, June-July, 2016)
“This manual for practicing urologists reviews the diagnosis and management of patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction. … practicing general urologists and trainees would benefit from having this book as a reference. … This is a good reference for general urologists to have on hand. It is a companion to a surgical atlas for those in training and a source of clinical pearls for those already familiar with the basic management of lower urinary tract diseases.” (Deborah Tova Glassman, Doody’s Book Reviews, June, 2016)
