This is the first revision book to be published specifically for candidates sitting the FRCS(Urol) examination, which tests the required standard of a recognized Urology specialist. It provides a selection of common clinical scenarios together with a guide to answering the FRCS(Urol) questions. Each chapter is written by Consultant Urological Surgeons or Senior Urology Trainees who have already been successful in passing the examination. This second edition responds to continual changes in practice: The chapters on urological cancers, including prostate cancer, bladder cancer, and renal cancer, have important updates due to the emergence of new evidence and changes in NICE, EAU, and AUA guidelines. Substantial revisions to other sections, such as paediatric urology, female urology, urinary stone disease, benign prostatic hyperplasia, and uro-technology, to meet the standards of current best practice. Adds an extra chapter on the TNM classification of urological cancers. The book remains an invaluable revision tool for the FRCS(Urol) and will also be useful for individuals sitting the FEBU and equivalent postgraduate urological examinations in the USA, Australia, and Asia. Established consultants will also find value in the text as a 'refresher in areas outside their subspecialist interest.
