Description

Nephrology and Urology of Small Animals provides veterinarians with the knowledge needed to effectively diagnose and treat urologic diseases in canine, feline, and exotic patients. Serving as an easy-to-use, comprehensive clinical reference, the text takes an evidence-based approach to detailed coverage of specific diseases and disorders, including etiology and prevalence, clinical signs, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, prognosis, controversies, and references. Coverage also includes practical review of anatomy and physiology of the urinary system, fundamentals of diagnostic testing and therapeutic techniques. Although more limited than the information provided for cats and dogs, the section Urinary Disorders of Avian and Exotic Companion Animals provides additional value to the ebook. One of the text’s greatest strengths is the universal use of evidence-based information combined with the experience of the expert authors to guide readers. 921 p.

I just knew it. This is a good book for who like nephrology and urology. The transplantation chapter is very good.

Between Dr. Polzin and Dr. Bartges they have upper and lower urinary diseases covered. The text is written by experts in all aspects of urinary disease and chapters are layer out in an easy to follow and organized fashion. It’s a great text for veterinary internists or veterinarians that have an interest in urinary tract disease.

I’m a human nephrologist and bought this fantastic book when my dog (a shih tzu) showed signs of renal insufficiency. Today my dog is doing well on a little protein diet. I was amazed to see how the field of veterinarian nephrology is so well developed. In general, almost everything we can do to treat humans can be done to treat animals. Including recent advances in kidney transplantation.

The book is also very well written, very similar to the best medical textbooks on the subject.
