MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
Cancer of the urinary bladder (UBC) is a common tumour, and most primary care physicians can expect to see two or three new cases each year. Since many patients will have a good prognosis, the number of patients with bladder cancer in the population of every practice will be much larger.

It is a concise guide to clinical practice for family physicians, specialist nurses, and junior doctors and will be of interest to patients keen to understand more about their condition.
