"Multidisciplinary Management of Female Pelvic Floor Disorders" is one of the only books available today which comprehensively covers female urology from an international and trans-specialty viewpoint. Written by a board of authoritative and high-profile experts, the book covers all aspects from urinary incontinence and overactive bladder, to fistulae and reconstructive surgery. Starting with a thorough introduction to anatomy, pathophysiology and investigations, this definitive work then moves on to cover the key disorders encountered in female urology. Throughout the book, medical and surgical treatment options are highlighted in special boxes, and each chapter is introduced with a clear "key points" box. The book is illustrated with a full-colour, state-of-the-art illustration program, which greatly helps elucidate understanding of difficult concepts. The text is kept concise and clinically-orientated. "Multidisciplinary Management of Female Pelvic Floor Disorders" is an invaluable reference for urologists, urogynecologists and primary care physicians who treat women. It is a must-have text for all practising physicians in this field
