As the study of molecular biology continues to develop, we find ourselves increasingly recognizing the biological characteristics and pathogenesis of urinary system tumors, and diagnosis and treatment concepts, methods, and techniques have seen great improvements over the years. Many scholars have come together to compile this book in order to introduce the latest development of urinary system tumors in a comprehensive and systematic manner.
