Description
This is an illustrated atlas / text designed to aid the nephrologist in diagnosing renal tumours and urinary tract diseases. It contains colour illustrations including clinical radiographs, gross specimen photographs and photomicrographs that illustrate all of the important abnormalities as well as some of the unusual ones. The book offers guidelines for identifying and evaluating tumours of the kidney, renal pelvis and ureter, including embryonal, mesenchymal and other tumours. In addition, it provides coverage of difficult lesions, including subtypes of renal cell carcinoma. It also covers pitfalls to avoid when making diagnoses of diseases of the lower urinary tract.
