Diese Operationslehre ist in den Jahren 1975 bis 1981 entstanden.
Sie tragt den gleichen Titel wie die 1962 erschienene Monographie.
Zwischen beiden Veroffentlichungen liegen fast 20 Jahre. Als Folge
des groBen technischen Fort- schritts wahrend dieser zwei Dekaden
muBte diese zweiteOperationslehre voll- standig neu geschrieben
werden. Die wichtigste dieser technischen Errungenschaften war die
EinfUhrung der Hopkins-Optiken, denen wir eine bisher nicht
gekannte Bildhelligkeit und eine Qualitat der Abbildung verdanken,
die ganz neue MaBstabe gesetzt hat. Fast ebenso entscheidend war
fur den Verfasser, daB er nicht nur auszubilden- den, jungeren
Arzten mit einem Glasfibermitbeobachter, sondern auch sich selbst
auf gespeicherten Farbfernsehfilmen beim Operieren zusehen konnte.
Dieses Mitbeobachten der eigenen Arbeit und der Schuler war von
unschatz- barem Wert fUr die Verbesserung der eigenen Technik und
das Erkennen von Fehlern. Die dadurch gewonnenen neuen Erkenntnisse
sind hier verwertet wor- den und werden, wie ich hoffe, den
didaktischen Nutzen des Buches steigern. Diesem didaktischen
Anliegen dient auch eine ausfUhrliche Darstellung der Grundlagen
der Resektionstechnik, in der die einzelnen Arten des Schneidens
anhand schematischer Darstellungen erlautert werden. Die spezielle
Resektions- technik schildert das Vorgehen bei den verschiedenen
Blasenhalskonfiguratio- nen. Eingeschlossen wurden auch die
transurethralen Eingriffe bei Blasentumoren, bei Blasensteinen
sowie die Anwendung der Zeiss-Schlinge und das Einlegen von
Ureterdauerkathetern. Die Sonderformen der Elektroresektion bei den
einzelnen Krankheitsbildern werden ebenso ausfUhrlich geschildert
wie die Vor- und Nachbehandlung des Patienten. Darstellungen der
operativen Technik haben eine alte Tradition. Bedeutende Meister
der operativen Medizin haben ihr Wissen in Operationslehren
vermittelt.
Every year nearly a quarter of a million men are diagnosed with
prostate cancer. Dr. Randall is a pathologist who spent his career
diagnosing other men with prostate cancer until one day it was his
turn. Since then he has become one of the thousands of men who
lived through, and with, the uncertainties that surround a prostate
cancer diagnosis. Like most men in this situation, grappling with
very important decisions with very significant consequences to
their bodies, he wanted to know what to expect, both immediately
after treatment and later during recovery. What Dr. Randall found
however was that despite so many men being treated for prostate
cancer there is little more than advertisements and short personal
statements on the web and very little patient generated material in
print.
Perceiving a need, Dr. Randall chose to write via his own personal
experiences the book he had been looking for - an account of
exactly what a prostate cancer patient can expect to happen to him;
both from the perspective of a patient and as a physician. The
reader will have a very first person look at the trials and
tribulations along each step of the prostate cancer path:
diagnosis, treatment options, robotic prostatectomy, post-operative
care issues, and perhaps most prominently on the minds of many men,
dealing with issues of post prostatectomy erectile dysfunction.
Dr. Randall not only shares his very personal experiences, but
also takes the reader behind the physician/hospital curtain to
offer a glimpse into the physician-to-physician interplay that most
patients never see. Interspersed in the narrative is enough
anatomy, physiology, and pathology to facilitate the lay reader's
understanding of the topic without being overdone.
But what sets this book apart is Dr. Randal's self-depreciating
style that takes a serious topic and makes it humorous. This book
is a short and easy read that is a must for anyone - the man with
prostate cancer, his partner, family, and friends - wanting to look
forward to a life beyond a diagnosis of prostate cancer.
Whether You're A Newly Diagnosed Bladder Cancer Patient, A
Survivor, Or A Friend Or Relative Of Either, This Book Offers Help.
The Completely Updated And Revised 100 Questions & Answers
About Bladder Cancer, Second Edition Gives You Authoritative,
Practical Answers To Your Questions About Current Treatment
Options, Post-Treatment Quality Of Life, Coping Strategies, Sources
Of Support, And Much More. Written By A Prominent Urologist, With
"Insider" Advice From Actual Patients, This Book Is An Invaluable
Resource For Anyone Coping With The Physical And Emotional Turmoil
Of This Frightening Disease.
For the last thirty years, Dr. Krisiloff has personally cared for
and cured more than 10,000 patients-men and women-who suffer from
chronic urological problems. With a simple holistic approach that
has no risk, he has seen cures in close to 90% of his patients who
suffer from these problems.Literally 90 million men and women in
the United States experience these urinary problems at one time or
another, Estimates are that one quarter of all visits to urologists
annually are from these complaints. Yet until now, university
scientists and physicians will readily admit they have no known
explanation for these problems, nor do they know how to effectively
treat these problems.With the Krisiloff Diet, a cure is now
possible for the problems of prostatitis, epididymitis, falsely
elevated PSA blood tests, bed wetting in children, urgency
incontinence in women, urethral syndrome (in Dr. Krisiloff's
opinion this is falsely diagnosed as interstitional cystitis),
increased urination at night (which greatly disturbs sleep), and
frequent urination in the day (greatly affecting quality of life),
unnecessary prostate surgery for men can be avoided and unnecessary
surgery for women for urine incontinence can also be avoided.All of
this can be accomplished at absolutely zero cost, with absolutely
zero harm to the patient, and the results can be seen in as little
as four to eight weeks. With its simple holistic approach, the
Krisiloff Diet could supplant all the expensive methods now used.
It could become the standard initial treatment for so many common
medical problems, often circumventing costly and ineffective
traditional methods. The savings for healthcare would be
enormous-close to $40 billion dollars by estimates-once it is
realizes that expensive medications and surgeries are unnecessary
measures.Dr. Krisiloff has empitically discovered the "holy grail"
explanation for inflammation in the body. The discovery is that
caffeine, alcohol and hot spices are responsible for causing
chronic inflammation in the body, and they specifically lead to
chronic urinary problems as well as other common medical condition
such as Gastroesophigeal Reflux Disease (GERD), Arthritis,
Sinusitis, and headaches. There is even reason to believe that they
are responsible for some cases of prostate cancer, diabetes, heart
disease, Alzheimer's, and colon and breast cancers.Prostate Cancer
represents 10% of all cancer diagnosed in men each year. 1 in 6 men
will have prostate cancer in their lifetime and 29,000 men die
yearly from prostate cancer- the second leading cause of cancer
death yearly in men.The beauty of the diet is how simple it is.
Just by stopping the consumption of caffeine, alcohol, and spicy
foods, hardly a sacrifice if people can be cured of so many common
medical problems, patients on the Krisiloff Diet not only see their
symptoms disappear, but they uniformly report that they feel better
than they have in yearly. They sleep better, are invigorated, and
although not intended as a weight loss diet they often end up
losing 5-6 pounds in the 1st month alone.Prostate cancer is the 2nd
most common cancer in men. More and more research suggests that
inflammation from chronic prostatitis can cause chronic cellular
change in the prostate, which can eventually lead to cell mutation
and prostate cancer. It therefore empirically makes sense that if
the Krisiloff Diet can prevent or cure prostatitis that it might
also prevent prostate cancer from developing. Studies have already
shown that alcohol and caffeine can increase the risk of women
getting breast cancer.It is hoped that this simple, highly
effective approach could initiate a new paradigm for the millions
and millions of patients who are presently undergoing many
expensive, unnecessary tests, procedures and medications. With no
risk, and no harm, and no medical costs
Around 32,000 men in the UK are diagnosed with prostate cancer each
year. It differs from most other cancers in the body, in that small
areas of cancer within the prostate are very common and may not
grow or cause any problems for many years. It is often it is
diagnosed during a routine checkup so most men that are diagnosed
often have no warning signs.
About one in three men over the age of 50 have some cancer cells
within their prostate and nearly all men over the age of 80 have a
small area of prostate cancer. It may cause pain, difficulty in
urinating, erectile dysfunction and other symptoms, but early
prostate cancer usually causes no symptoms.
Since the first edition of this book was published in 2003, there
have been several groundbreaking studies completed that have
changed the way that certain categories of the disease are treated.
This new edition of the book includes sections on radiotherapy,
which is now known to be an effective treatment for men with
residual prostate cancer after surgery, and a heavily updated
chapter on Advanced Disease.
Over 200,000 times a year in the U.S. a patient will leave his
urologist's office having been told he has prostate cancer. What
the patient thought to be a disease of old men from which they do
not die, now becomes a very complicated and frustrating dilemma
about which treatment to pursue. "The Decision" offers the reader
an insider's view to the key issues necessary for a well
thought-out treatment plan peculiar only to him. Being a urologist
who treats prostate cancer and having had the disease as well,
uniquely positions the author in offering guidance to the newly
diagnosed prostate cancer patient. Dr. McHugh outlines a novel and
multifaceted approach, using an eclectic mix of medical insight,
personal stories and humor, to aid the reader in making his
"Decision." The US Review of Books - Carolyn Davis A urologist,
McHugh, was inspired to write this informative book after he
developed prostate cancer and dealt with treatment options as a
patient. Part guidebook, part autobiography, it is intended for men
who are facing the often perplexing choices of potential
treatments. "Prostate stories" and more of McHugh's autobiography
complete the book. The Decision is recommended for its combination
of empirical tools, personal anecdotes, and overall compassion.
Clarion ForeWard Five Star out of Five Book Review: McHugh has
written an invaluable tool for the man facing the decision of how
to treat his prostate cancer. This reviewer too knows of what he
speaks, having been diagnosed with prostate cancer nearly six years
ago. He had robotic surgery and is living an active, cancer-free
life. John Michael Senger April 28, 2011
In this third edition of Humanizing Prostate Cancer, urologist
Roger Schultz and prostate cancer survivor Alex W. Oliver continue
their mission to help men and their families cope with prostate
cancer. In a unique conversation between physician and patient, the
authors present a fresh angle that includes a strong medical
foundation, sound advice, and sensitivity to men who must face this
diagnosis. This edition also includes recent developments in
prostate cancer research and treatment.

Urologists and medical oncologists have witnessed a rapid growth in
systemic therapeutic options for treating genitourinary
malignancies that increasingly integrates radiation therapy to
primary cancers, nodal beds, and even metastatic sites. The
culmination of these advances has been the creation of
multidisciplinary teams that expertly provide comprehensive care to
patients with urologic cancers. This book provides the framework to
create such a multidisciplinary clinical team focused on the
treatment of urologic malignancies with representation from
urologists, medical oncologists, and additional specialists who
work together to provide optimal team-based care. The book
integrates advanced systemic therapeutics including immune-based
and targeted therapies. Readers gain a better understanding of the
benefit of multidisciplinary co-management through specific
examples such as hormone sensitive metastatic prostate cancer,
neoadjuvant chemotherapy for muscle invasive bladder cancer, and
immunotherapy approaches to advanced bladder and kidney cancer. The
book also discusses the integration of genomic tumor
characterization and personalized medicine into surgical planning,
tumor biopsies, and chemo-immunotherapy selection, emphasizing the
expansion of new therapeutics for urologic malignancies and the
changing definitions of disease progression. Urologic Oncology:
Multidisciplinary Care for Patients is a comprehensive resource for
urologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, genetic
counselors, fellows in urologic oncology and medical oncology,
residents in urology and radiation oncology, advanced practice
providers, practice managers, and pharmaceutical representatives.

This book aims to address a number of controversies concerning the
use of testosterone treatment. It explains topics that clinicians
regularly encounter such as whether to use free or total
testosterone in the evaluation of the patient with testosterone
deficiency; what factors actually impact testosterone levels,
polycythemia, gynecomastia, bone density, and hyperprolactinemia in
the testosterone deficient patient; critical analysis of the
numerous questionnaires that are available to clinicians; and the
impact of testosterone therapy on male fertility, cardiovascular
disease, and prostate events including prostate cancer. Guiding the
reader in both evaluation and management, the book also illuminates
novel concepts in the T space such as testosterone use in the
transgender population, T therapy as an endothelial modulator,
bipolar testosterone therapy in the patient with advanced prostate
cancer, and testosterone therapy as a performance enhancer.
Controversies in Testosterone Deficiency is intended for any
clinician involved in the care of patients with testosterone
deficiency, exploring hot topics and correcting existent
misinformation in the routine care of patients.
