Publisher's Synopsis
A comprehensive account of in-utero diagnosis of fetal urological disease, together with a guide to pre- and post-partum management.
Drawing on a distinguished cast of contributors, Urological Disease in the Fetus and Infant sets the embryological and genetic stage for later anomalies and malformations, proceeding then to examine in detail the diagnosis and management of all the major uropathies in the fetus and neonate. Epidemiological factors are covered in detail and ethical aspects are discussed, but this book remains an essentially practical account which should provide a comprehensive reference source for the paediatric surgeon, urologist, obstetrician and paediatrician.
