It has often surprised me that in order to study the subject of
obstructive uropathy, it is necessary to search through various
sections of several urological, surgical and radiological textbooks
rather than turn to one work on the subject. It is also true that,
even now, many descriptions tend to concentrate on the causative
conditions rather than their relationship to the proximal outflow
tract, in a way which is predominantly structural and anatomical
rather than functional and urodynamic. The subject of obstructive
uropathy has changed radically in recent years. Inspired research
from several centres has given us great insight into the mechanisms
of obstruction and its effects on the outflow tract and nephron. It
has been accompanied by the development of new methods of
investigation in both the experimental and the clinical field. This
book is an attempt to update and distill the subject of obstructive
uropathy in one volume. For the purpose of the work, obstructive
uropathy is taken to include any condition involving the outflow
tract of the kidney, from minor calyces to urethra, which results
in obstruction to the flow of urine. Emphasis is on physiology and
pathophysiol ogy, function and urodynamics. These considerations
should not be thought of as purely theoretical. Far from it. They
hold the key to subsequent decisions on diagnosis and management
and form the basis for a practical approach to the patient with
obstruction. The only details the reader will not find here are
descriptions of surgical technique."
