Summary: This unique book is the first to focus on diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy in gastrointestinal and pancreatico-biliary diseases. It provides an in-depth overview of the state of the art in diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy of both the digestive tract and the pancreatico-biliary ductal system, and documents the latest innovations in the field. The first part of the book addresses advanced diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy of the digestive tract, discussing bariatric endoscopic surgery, and the treatment of neoplasia and precancerous lesions of the upper and lower GI tract, motor disorders, GERD, strictures, fistulae and bleeding. The second part of the book is explores ERCP and EUS procedures, covering the diagnosis and therapy of biliary ductal system and pancreatic diseases. Each chapter includes an abundance of color images that document in detail the devices, operative techniques and outcomes. Written by leading internationally renowned experts, the book is a valuable resource for both specialists and residents in gastroenterology and surgery.
