Rare CongenitalGenitourinary Anomalies

Mohamed A. Baky Fahmy Editor

An IllustratedReference Guide

Patients with rare diseases, affecting less than 1 in 2000 persons, frequently experi-ence delays or errors in diagnosis, some-times with tragic consequences. Even after the diagnosis has been established, the qual-ity of health care delivered is often poor. This book, which is both textbook and atlas, covers the full range of rare congenital geni-tourinary anomalies encountered in males and females, many of which have previously been described only in sporadic case reports. In the case of the more established anoma-lies, variants are presented. For each anom-aly, information is provided on incidence, similar cases, clinical presentation, diag-nosis, possible management and outcome. Informative supporting illustrations are presented for each anomaly, and the book will serve as an excellent reference for all pediatricians, urologists and surgeons who are responsible for the care of such patients.
