Since this website was first published, the medical
information has consisted of largely unaltered text from the handbook "Small
gland - BIG problem" written by Professor Roger Kirby and donated
to the Charity. There have so far been three editions of
this handbook, at three yearly intervals, and the text in the current
website has been taken from Edition 3 published in the autumn
of 2006. It is intended that the handbook will continue to be
updated at approximately three year intervals. In addition,
the medical pages in this website will be reviewed in the light
of latest practice mid-way between the new editions of the handbook
at approximately eighteen month intervals.
