Description
Book Introduction
A Doctor Teaching Robotic Surgery's Kidney Cancer Story

In fact, kidney cancer has a lower prevalence rate than other cancers, so it has been relatively unknown.
However, as health checkups have become more common and diagnostic technology has developed, the number of patients diagnosed with kidney cancer is increasing.
However, there are few books written for patients with kidney cancer.
Moreover, because it is a relatively unknown cancer, it is not easy for patients or their families to obtain accurate information that fits their individual disease situation.
However, since the kidney is an organ that has a huge impact on the patient's quality of life once it is damaged, information based on the latest knowledge and treatment experience is important.


This book introduces the cases of various kidney cancer patients treated by the author, a professor of urology at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, along with CT images, and explains how the treatment was carried out.
It also provides information on the latest kidney cancer treatments, including robotic surgery, and precautions to take during recovery.
We have compiled well-organized information about kidney cancer for readers including patients and their families as well as the general public who are interested in kidney cancer.

Publisher's Review
A true story written at the forefront of surgery, research, and education.

Medicine is advancing rapidly every year.
Kidney cancer treatment is no exception, and this revised edition reflects recent changes in treatment.
For example, in cancer treatment, combination therapy using immunotherapy is becoming increasingly central, and in the field of surgery, single-port robotic surgery is being implemented in earnest.
Additionally, for small kidney tumors, a method of observing for a certain period of time rather than performing surgery immediately was introduced.
I hope this book will increase the public's understanding of kidney cancer and help patients learn more about their disease, receive appropriate treatment, and regain their health as quickly as possible.
