Research and Markets has added "Pediatric Robotic and Reconstructive Urology: A Comprehensive Guide" to its portfolio of product offerings. The new book from John Wiley and Sons has been edited by Mohan S. Gundeti, MD, at the Comer Children's Hospital, University of Chicago.
Robotic urological surgery is being considered as a notable development in the field of pediatric urology. The technology allows surgeons to perform surgery with better precision when compared to laparoscopic methods. The robotic technique maintains the advantages of laparoscopy such as lower morbidity and faster recovery. In pediatric surgery, surgeons have a low room for error as they have to operate on smaller anatomies.
The new book on pediatric robotic urological surgery is targeted at pediatric surgeons, general urologists, pediatric urologists, and other specialists and trainees and will help them master related robotic technology to provide better care for pediatric patients.
The "Pediatric Robotic and Reconstructive Urology: A Comprehensive Guide" contains text, images and video for guidance. It is a full-color book containing over 30 surgical videos that illustrate the performance of robotic surgery. The videos can be accessed through a companion website.
The comprehensive book contains information about training, physiology and instrumentation of robotic urologic surgery. It discusses the planning and techniques that are part of the robotic surgery. The book also deals with reconstructive principles for adults that are also applicable for children.
