Regenerative Medicine in the Genitourinary System gives the reader a comprehensive overview of tissue engineering used to treat genitourinary disorders and infertility, also providing a great learning platform for researchers in different fields such as cell biology, pharmaceutics, clinicians, chemists, material scientists, and more. The book covers the latest innovations on the subject, but also acts as a resource for tissue engineering applications and regenerative medicine. Over the last several decades, tissue engineering has continued to make considerable advancements in therapeutic and clinical strategies that address male/female urological or genitourinary diseases.
Although several articles have been published on this topic, there are very few book chapters and no single book currently available dedicated to this topic.
