Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma represents the first book of its kind to be dedicated solely to UTUC. It's aim is to improve understanding and eventually care of a disease that is greatly understudied and underappreciated, yet commonly dealt with by many medical and urologic oncologists. The volume features new data regarding genetic susceptibility, gene expression studies and causative factors; contemporary concepts and controversies regarding diagnosis and staging of UTUC; prediction tools and their value in treatment decisions within each disease stage and patient selection and treatment options such as endoscopic management, distal ureterectomy, radical nephroureterectomy and chemotherapy. Up-to-date information regarding boundaries of surgical resection, indication and extent of lymphadenectomy is covered as well as the role of perioperative/neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with high-risk UTUC. Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma will be of great value to all Urologists, Medical Oncologists and fellows in Urologic Oncology as well as upper level residents in training in Urology and Medical Oncology.

Only with this knowledge can students truly appreciate the security challenges and opportun...
This book shows that the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics is a natural consequence of the development of human society. It examines the history of production from the Stone Age to the present, progressing from the manual age to the machine age and then to the robotic age. From the perspective of economics and human physiology, this book explains how AI and robotics will reshape the economy and society, and how individuals, firms, and governments should prepare for the advent of the robotic age.
The Primer on Urology is an entirely new approach to reviewing the field of urology. The principle is to cover the whole subject of urology in an up-to-date textbook, with not only chapters written by key opinion leaders within Europe but also a significant commentary on each section from a senior North American urologist. The book is based on the European Association of Urology Guidelines, which are updated regularly with a new release every year. This will be a valuable book for anybody interested in urology but is designed in particular for the resident as well as the practising urologist who wants a crisp update of the latest developments in the field as well as the basic knowledge, all of which is succinctly presented with reference to the latest evidence-based approach to the subject.
La collection "Mémo infirmier", conforme au nouveau programme des études infirmières, propose des fiches de révision pour les étudiants infirmiers. Ces mémos leur seront utiles pour préparer les évaluations des Unités d'enseignement consacrées aux Processus physiopathologiques (UE 2.4 à 2.9). Cet ouvrage consacré aux processus obstructifs (Unité d'enseignement 2.8, semestre 3) aborde : - les processus obstructifs neurologiques, - les processus obstructifs cardiovasculaires, - les processus obstructifs respiratoires, - les processus obstructifs digestifs, - les processus obstructifs uro-néphrologiques. Chaque partie est introduite par des rappels d'anatomie et de physiologie, reprend ensuite pour chaque fiche de processus un plan identique (définition, étiologie, diagnostics, traitement, conduite à tenir infirmière) et se clôt quand nécessaire par des fiches consacrées aux examens complémentaires pertinents.
