Description
This collection of authoritative papers presents a multidisciplinary overview of basic and clinical research advances being made by Japanese and American investigators in the area of prostate cancer. Based on the Second Tokyo Symposium on Prostate Cancer held in December 1987, this volume covers all new advances in the etiology, detection, diagnosis and treatment of this lethal disease. Reporting on parallel studies conducted independently by Japanese and American scientists. Prostate Cancer: The Second Tokyo Symposium contains both complementary and divergent findings that underline the need for both individual and joint research. Main topics covered in this volume include: carcinogenesis, pathology, surgical management, hormone therapy and chemotherapy. Written by and for those scientists involved in the investigation of the pathogenesis and treatment of this disease. Prostate Cancer will be a welcome addition to your professional library.
