Synopsis

This book outlines strategies that are unique to the elderly population for the long-term management of urological diseases. It addresses specifically surgical procedures in older people and the importance of preoperative preparation in assessment, intraoperative management, and postoperative rehabilitation to achieve the highest possible level of functional status and quality of life. It attempts to define guideleines for the boundaries identifying surgical candidates in the elderly population, and answer the questions of when to operate and how to minimize the complications of surgery while maximising survival and quality of life.
