Preface
Translational research implements a “bench-to-bedside,” from laboratory experiments through clinical trials to point-of-care patient applications. The end point of translational research is the production of a promising new treatment that can be used with practical application which can then be used clinically. The present book Translational Research in Pediatric Urology: Basic and Clinical Aspects is a work of the Urogenital Research Unit that was founded by Prof. Francisco J.B. Sampaio 30 years ago. The Urogenital Research Unit, located at the Biomedical Center of the State University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and under the direction of Francisco J.B. Sampaio, is dedicated to advancing the knowledge on the urogenital system, from both a basic science and a medical perspective. Research is conducted on several models, which include clinical trials and experiments on laboratory animals, and employs a wide range of methodologies. In this book, we present basic studies about the urogenital system with anatomic and embryologic emphasis applied to pediatric urology. This book applies to pediatric surgeons,
