Botulinum Toxin in Urology

Autor Michael B. Chancellor, Christopher P. Smith
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 iul 2011

Urologia clinică și medicina regenerativă au făcut pași importanți prin utilizarea onabotulinumtoxinei A, iar Botulinum Toxin in Urology reprezintă prima resursă exhaustivă care sintetizează aceste progrese pentru practicieni. Suntem de părere că expertiza autorilor Michael B. Chancellor și Christopher P. Smith este esențială, aceștia fiind cercetătorii care au pus bazele înțelegerii mecanismelor de acțiune ale toxinei la nivelul tractului urinar inferior. Cartea este organizată riguros, începând cu principiile de siguranță și biologie, continuând cu aplicațiile specifice pentru vezica neurogenă, cistita interstițială și afecțiunile prostatei.

Merită menționat că abordarea este una eminamente practică, volumul oferind nu doar date clinice, ci și instrumente de lucru: instrucțiuni pentru pacienți și protocoale pentru asistenți. Această lucrare completează temele explorate de Michael B. Chancellor în The Underactive Bladder, unde se concentra pe diagnosticul urodinamic și terapia medicamentoasă a vezicii hipoactive, extinzând acum arsenalul terapeutic către soluțiile neurotoxice.

Ca alternativă la Clinical Uses of Botulinum Toxins de Anthony B. Ward, care oferă o perspectivă multidisciplinară (neurologie, dermatologie, reabilitare), volumul de față este net superior pentru specialiștii urologi datorită focalizării exclusive pe aparatul genitourinar și a detalierii tehnicilor de injectare specifice sfincterului și planșeului pelvin. Tonul este clinic și precis, reflectând o rigoare științifică adaptată nevoilor din sala de operație sau din cabinetul de consultanții, fiind o referință de bază pentru implementarea acestor terapii moderne.

Descriere scurtă

Bladder injection of onabotulinumtoxinA for the treatment of urinary incontinence due to neurogenic detrusor overactivity has recently been approved by regulatory agencies in several EU countries and by the FDA in the United States. This is the first book to focus on the practical application of botulinum toxin (BoNT) in the genitourinary tract. It covers in detail applications of BoNT in the bladder and the prostate and pelvic floor, with reviews of the latest clinical series and techniques in both adults and children. Appendices containing easy-to-read instructions for patients undergoing bladder and prostate BoNT injections are included, in addition to procedural guidelines for nursing staff. The book is written in a concise, clinically relevant style by two leading pioneers in the field, who were the first to undertake comprehensive basic research into the mechanisms underlying the efficacy and potential uses of BoNT within the lower urinary tract.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
“This book will be a very welcome addition to the urology library since it is the first book on the use of botulinum toxin (BoNT) in the genitourinary tract and is written and edited by two leading pioneers in the field, Michael Chancellor and Christopher Smith.” (International Painful Bladder Foundation, January, 2012)
“This first edition book on botulinum toxin (BoNT) is devoted to its medical applications in the genitourinary tract. … All information is supported by extensive references. The text is complemented with numerous easy-to-read tables, and very well designed figures and graphics, some in colour and some black and white. This concisely written, practical, hands-on book is an excellent source of information for all involved in BoNT treatment, including students, residents, fellows, physicians and nurses.” (Jane Meijlink and Jerzy Gajewski, ICS News, Vol. 8 (1), January, 2012)

Textul de pe ultima copertă

The minimally invasive use of botulinum toxin (BoNT) in the lower urinary tract has revolutionized the treatment of debilitating bladder, urethra, and prostate conditions refractory to conventional therapy.  This is the first book focusing on the practical application of BoNT to the genitourinary tract.  An introductory section discusses the biology, pharmacology, and safety of BoNT in the lower urinary tract.  Applications of BoNT in the bladder and the prostate and pelvic floor are then covered in detail, with reviews of the latest clinical series and techniques of BoNT injection in both adults and children.  The book closes by considering non-genitourinary uses of BoNT and addressing issues of health economics as well as providing insights from experts from across the world.  This is a practical, hands-on book that also includes appendices containing easy to read instructions for patients undergoing bladder and prostate BoNT injections and specific nursing procedural issues.
 
The book is written in a concise, uniform, and clinically relevant style by two leading pioneers in the field, Drs. Michael Chancellor and Christopher Smith, who were the first to undertake comprehensive basic research into the mechanisms underlying the efficacy and potential uses of BoNT within the lower urinary tract.  Botulinum Toxin in Urology will be of interest to all urologists and urogynecologists who are considering the use of BoNT in their practice.
