Second Edition
edited by Leonard G. Gomella
The 5-Minute Urology Consult is a comprehensive, easily accessible reference guide for any practitioner encountering urologic symptoms or disease in adults or in pediatric patients.
Features include:
- Over 281 contributors and specialty editors, including a new international Editorial Board, covering medical and surgical issues within their areas of expertise
- New section of algorithms for the most common and problematic diagnosis
- Urologic drug compendium listing over 300 commonly used medications
- Sections dedicated to Urinalysis and other Urine Studies and Alternative Urologic Therapies
The 5-Minute Urology Consult has been reorganized so that all standard two-page entries appear in alphabetical order, and pages are tabbed for quicker access. Shorter entries appear in alphabetical order in their own section after the standard entries.
A companion Website features additional content, an image bank, and information on all current drugs, herbal medications, and alternative therapies.
