Preface
V We have published a monograph every year since 1999. Recent Advances in Endourology, Volume 8 deals with new, clinically relevant developments in interventional management of urological diseases. Members of the medical profession know that few procedures can be carried out by only one method.
Endourology has developed significantly as a result of rapid changes in surgical techniques and innovative instruments, aided by the use of new energy sources.
Endourological procedures now can be performed via the urethra or tiny inci- sions, eliminating the need to make large incisions. Postoperative patient recov- ery and pain can be dramatically reduced by the endoscopic surgical approach, and cosmetic effects can also be significantly improved by such surgical proce- dures. In the past 30 years, transurethral resection of the prostate, bladder, and ureteral tumors has been refined, using a variety of instruments and energy sources such as laser beams. Transurethral microwave thermotherapy (TUMT) has matured in the past 10 years as a nonsurgical option for treatment of benign prostatic obstruction. There also has been significant change in percutaneous surgery, made possible by the miniaturization of the endoscope and by newly developed instruments. Needle ablation techniques, which have been added to the armamentarium for treatment of small renal cell tumors, have significantly decreased pain and shortened hospital stays of patients.
The goal of this volume is to provide the most recent clinical information on various endourological treatment modalities and innovative materials. For that purpose, we asked recognized experts to outline their techniques clearly and con- cisely. We are deeply grateful to the authors for contributing their enlightening, informative chapters. This book could never have appeared without the excep- tional cooperation of all concerned.
