Urinary Fistula
Description
Although the condition of fistula is universal, this new book addresses not only obstetric fistulas that have been the most studied, but also those that affect men and those related to specific situations such as kidney transplantation. We also make the first formal publication on fistulas present in transgender patients, which have never been studied before. The book is organized in an accessible way and with collaboration of leaders in the field who contribute their knowledge and fully updated experience.
