Publisher's Synopsis
This reference work on prostate and testicular cancers not only offers basic information about recent clinical and experimental developments concerning these tumours, but also features "consensus" reports that present summations of the knowledge and experience of clinicians and scientists working in specific areas of the field. The book thus provides a framework for assessing the clinical relevance and therapeutic potential of the various new developments discussed. Among the specific topics covered by contributors are diagnosis and management of localized prostate cancer; oncogene expression in prostate cancer; biopsy techniques and cytology; management of seminoma; the role of lymph node dissection in testicular cancer, and pathological classifications of testicular tumours.
