Urology, as a specialty, has a number of peculiarities that distinguish it from other surgical specialties, making its teaching at the undergraduate level completely essential. The peculiarities consist of the fact that urological diseases have a significant impact on the general population and that urological problems are a very common reason for either visiting a general practitioner or going to the emergency department of a hospital.

Given that the health care system in our country looks forward to providing primary health care by graduates of medical schools, they should be able to at least diagnostically address basic urological problems and guide urological patients to a specialist.

This book is one of the few that is aimed solely at medical students, systematically and understandably engaging with the basic topics of Urology without delving into details that are necessary for the specialized urologist. Furthermore, the style of writing aligns more with the modern trend in medical education, which starts with clinical problems.
