Prostate Cancer: A Multidisciplinary Guide

by Philip W. Kantoff (Editor), Kenneth I. Wishnow (Editor), Kevin R. Loughlin (Editor)

The goal of this book is to sort out - in concise, readable form - the many diagnostic and therapeutic options available to those physicians who deal with prostatic disease. A discussion of pathophysiology is brief but clinically relevant; similar short chapters on patient screening amd staging are also included. The authors summarise current thinking on peripheral issues like the psychological and sexual effects of prostate diseases. A chapter on long-term follow up is particularly important to the primary care physician.
