    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    This book is a medical reference for doctors caring for people whose kidney disease is complicated by cancer, or whose cancer is complicated by kidney problems. This is an overlap area in medicine that is often difficult to manage. This book addresses that overlap area and will help kidney doctors as well as cancer doctors to care for their patients.

    Long description:

    Kidney disease, metabolic disturbances or kidney failure can occur in a cancer patient, and cancers may complicate the lives of dialysis or transplant patients. These cross-specialty clinical problems and their management are the focus of this book, which provides nephrologists and oncologists with an accurate and up-to-date reference.

    The many topics included in this text are both general and specific. The general topics are acute renal failure occurring in cancer patients, nephrotoxicities of cancer chemotherapy, cancers that occur in dialysis or transplant patients, urinary tract obstruction, and electrolyte disturbances in cancer patients. The specific topics include renal disease in paraproteinemias, kidney cancer, paraneoplastic glomerular diseases, and radiation nephritis.
    This book has a strong clinical emphasis and will thus appeal to any physician who cares for and about patients with cancer.

    This book brings well-known but previously dispersed observations on cancer and the kidney into one well-edited book that serves as a clinical reference for students and practicing physicians alike. The clinical focus is excellent, and the pace is fast.
