eBook

    Pelvic Organ Dysfunction in Neurological Disease describes the neurological control of human bladder, bowel and sexual function and then details the dysfunctions which may arise as a consequence of various neurological diseases. Easy to read, the book will be of value to any healthcare professional managing patients in whom pelvic organ functions have been compromised by neurological disease. The book provides a structured approach to present day understanding of the neurological control of pelvic organs and the investigation and management of each type of organ dysfunction. A unique feature of this book is that it addresses the impact of specific neurological disorders on all three functions. The authors have all been associated with the Department of Uro-Neurology at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, London since it was established 20 years ago. This book is a timely review of their accumulated knowledge and the latest literature.

    • Clear separation of basic sciences, investigative work-up and management - allows the reader to focus on the degree of detail required
    • Inclusion of evidence-based algorithms for common clinical situations - instant access to diagnostic and treatment options
    • Organ-specific as well as neurological disease-specific layout to the text - provides a global assessment of function
