This text is dedicated to Barrett’s esophagus and provides
recent evidence and current approaches to patient management. It
has been completely revised, updated and extended to include the
latest research findings and describes how these affect day-to-day
clinical practice.
It includes seven new chapters and even more color images than
the last edition. Each chapter, written by the leading
international experts in the field, provides clear, didactic
guidance on diagnosis, treatment and management of this
condition.
Barrett’s Espohagus gives an extensive overview
covering epidemiology, screening, pathology, gastroenterology and
surgery. It looks at the precursor lesions leading to the
development of Barrett’s epithelium, the unique
characteristics of Barrett’s esophagus, and the consequences
of malignant degeneration. All aspects of diagnosis, secondary
prevention, multimodality, and medical and surgical treatment are
clearly explained.
This is a complete guide on the latest thinking on diagnosis and treatment of Barrett’s esophagus which can be referred to over and over again.
