The most recent experimental work in urology is presented inthis volume. Itcontinues the biennial publication of thereports given at the internationalsymposia for experimentalurological research; the tenth symposium was held in Munichin June, 1990. The wide range of subjects covers renal cellcancer and adenoma, bladder cancer, urinary diversion, uro-dynamics, renal pathophysiology and transplantation as wellas the pathogenesis and treatment of urolithiasis.
