Title Reviews
Review of the previous edition:
"This continues to be the go-to surgical atlas for the field of urology. Its thorough descriptions accompanied by a combination of detailed colored illustrations with real-life surgical pictures provide a comprehensive single resource for urologists in training looking for the basics or experienced surgeons looking to brush up on surgical technique. The associated website and application makes on-the-go access easy for quick review. With the rapid adoption of minimally invasive surgery along with the increased use of robotic assistance, this update is most welcome." -Reviewed by Patrick T.
