About this book

Upper Urinary Tract Urothelial Carcinoma was at one time felt to be a somewhat rare entity.  With the success of various treatments for bladder urothelial carcinoma, the incidence of this disease in the uretere and kidney is rising.  Many medical subspecialists encounter these complex patients and a multimodality treatment plan is often required for care.

Reviews

“This book covers upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) in a concise, yet encyclopedic manner. … This is likely to be useful to a wide range of practitioners in the field of urology, from general urologists to urologic oncologists. … This book does fill a relative void in this important aspect of urothelial carcinoma of the upper tract.” (Ashish Kamat, Doody’s Book Reviews, January, 2016)
