This book is translated by Dr. Shiyin Guo, Ms. Qiqi Yao, and Professor Yinglu Guo, who have studied in Japan for ten years. The translation of this book aims to learn from, introduce, and adopt advanced foreign technologies and knowledge, to promote international academic exchanges in medicine, particularly urology, and to provide more information for young scholars and senior experts. After years of effort and planning, the translation team began working on this project in 2000 and finally realized the dream of publication in 2003. During the publishing process, the book received strong support from the leadership of Liaoning Science and Technology Publishing House and the chief editors Shuyahuo Shou and Xu Ping. The English version of this book has already been published and has been praised by urologists in Europe and America. Today, the publication of its Chinese version is sure to be well-received by Chinese urological peers and scholars. At the same time, it represents a milestone in the history of Chinese urology and will further advance the development of medicine in China, Japan, Asia, and even the world.
