This second edition will feature updated chapters on robotics
The editors look at the most up to date technology and new range of procedures in laparoscopic urology
New chapters will include ablation and imaging technologies and immunofluorescence

This updated title is the ideal reference book for residents and fellows, with step-by-step pictures and only the essential prose.
The major part of the book is illustrated with magnificent photographs and diagrams depicting every step of a particular procedure. Instruments are clearly shown and have been photographed from both outside and inside the body. Chapters demonstrate accepted laparoscopic techniques that are the new gold standard in urology.
Outcome analyses show that with laparoscopy one can achieve the same oncologic success as with open surgery but will less morbidity.
