Description
Eric A. Klein has thoroughly revised and updated his classic book covering all phases in the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer, from localized to locally advanced, to metastatic, to hormone refractory disease. Topics range from epidemiology and risk factors, molecular markers, and screening, to surgical techniques, radiation and hormone therapy, biopsy, and imaging. The expert authors also assess quality-of-life issues and examine questions of sexual rehabilitation. Up-to-date and eminently practice-oriented, Management of Prostate Cancer offers every physician, especially frontline urologists, radiation therapists, and medical oncologists, the comprehensive, expert guidance on the treatment of prostate cancer that will ensure each of their patients today's best treatment regimens.
