Synopsis
This important full-color atlas, written by pioneers in the field,
provides complete, superbly illustrated coverage of both new and established
techniques in GI endoscopy. Now fully updated with the newest interventional
procedures.
The book uses more than 500 high-definition watercolors derived from
operative photographs which simulate the physician's cognitive visual experience
while performing the procedures, and thus recreating both the look and -feel- of
actual surgery. The accompanying text leads you step-by-step through each
operation, and highlights both special tips and potential pitfalls. Thorough and
usefully illustrated, this unique book will prove indispensable for all
gastroenterologists and endoscopic surgeons.
New topics include: Endoscopy
mucosal en bloc resection for early gastrointestinal cancers, self-expandable
metallic enteral stents, self-expandable metallic stents for Klatskin tumor,
treatment of intraabdominal abscesses, and more.
