Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating: - Excellent reference
This text has managed to do the impossible - succinctly summarize the vast and complicated field of GU oncology into a single volume readable precis. The chapters cover all aspects of the relevant malignancies complete with clinical manifestations of disease, current staging systems, pathology considerations and finally standard, novel, and experimental treatment protocols. It certainly is an important reference for those training in urology or those involved in the urologic oncology field.
