About this title

Review

"The bulk of this book will be of interest primarily to urologists. There are chapters on penile implants and complications of penile-implants surgery, Peyronie's disease and its treatment, use of nerve-sparing surgical techniques to prevent erectile dysfunction after radical prostatectomy, and the management of priapism. The contributing authors are distinguished urologists at the forefront of research on the treatment of erectile dysfunction."... New England Journal of Medicine

"...the monograph is absolutely comprehensive...(it) should be consulted by interested urologists, but also be present in all libraries of institutes with a training programme." - European Urology Today

From the Back Cover

With the introduction of Viagra in 1999, primary care physicians, many of whom had received little training in erectile dysfunction and were not very comfortable about discussing this topic with patients, suddenly found themselves overwhelmed by patients seeking treatment. In Male Sexual Function: A Guide to Clinical Management, leading clinicians and basic scientists comprehensively survey the background, diagnostic tools, associated conditions, causes, and treatments of erectile dysfunction. Here the busy practitioner will find concise and useful information on the anatomy and physiology of erectile function and dysfunction, ejaculatory disorders, Peyronie's disease, and priapism, as well as a chapter on female sexual dysfunction, in addition to thorough chapters on diagnosis and treatment.
Comprehensive and up-to-date, Male Sexual Function: A Guide to Clinical Management provides primary care specialists, as well as clinical practitioners at every level of expertise, all the practical knowledge they need to rapidly gain real mastery in evaluating, treating, and discussing erectile dysfunction with those patients seeking advice and treatment.
