Publisher's Synopsis
This is a set of colour slides, with accompanying text and captions, on the prostate and prostatic disease, and featuring important coverage of methods of diagnosis. With the use of photomicrographs and diagrams, the slides illustrate and explain the anatomy and embryology of the prostate, innervation and ejaculatory function, and the underlying mechanisms and causes of abnormal prostate growth. They also cover prostatic neoplasia and inflammatory processes, pathology of the prostate, bladder outlet obstruction, benign prostatic hypertrophy, prostate cancer and prostitis, and the diagnosis of prostatic disorders.;These slides represent most of the illustrations in "An Atlas of Prostatic Diseases" by the same author, published in 1997.
