A practical survey of urinary surgery that helps clinicians diagnose and treat patients more quickly and effectively.
This 1910 reference draws together the advances in urology from the last decade. It covers improved catheterization techniques, new tests for kidney function, the use of X-ray imaging to detect stones, and advances in the bacteriology of urinary infections. The book also outlines progress in prostate surgery and emphasizes practical methods that busy practitioners can apply, even if they are not masters of every technical procedure. It focuses on recognizing important symptoms and linking them with observable signs from cystoscopy, urinalysis, bacteriology, and radiography.
What you’ll gain from this edition:
- A framework for examining urological cases and interpreting findings
- How to correlate symptoms with tests to identify the underlying cause early
- Practical guidance on using cystoscopy, ureteric catheters, and X-rays in diagnosis
- Indications and overview of operative decisions, without getting lost in every detail
- Ideal for clinicians, students, and practitioners seeking a solid, historically informed foundation in urinary surgery.
