| Summary |
This book is written in a unique style that immediately catches the reader's interest and takes him on an enjoyable and fruitful journey from the kidneys to the male genital organs. Throughout the chapters, the researchers, the practitioners, and the junior doctors under urological training are offered a rare opportunity to rapidly refresh their knowledge with updated information starting from the mythical and historical conception of the involved organ, its embryology and anatomy, and progressing to the epidemiology, etiology, anatomopathology, mechanism, treatment and prognosis of its trauma. It aims to provide the reader with the most complete and practical information possible and includes an abundant and well-selected illustration to help the learning process. A special section on male genital self-mutilations is added at the end of the book as the icing on the cake, treating this phenomenon systematically with a harmonious marriage between mythology, history, and a comprehensive literature review and management strategies. This manual has been reviewed and recommended by an internationally renowned expert in urogenital trauma and reconstructive surgery and is a very useful vade mecum for every Practitioner or resident in Urology |
