Early adenocarcinoma in Barrett esophagus: is this an endoscopic or a surgical problem?.This book focuses on Barrett’s Esophagus (BE), a clinical condition that must be evaluated in all patients affected by chronic GERD, and with an important link to esophageal cancer. Divided into four sections (morphological background, epidemiology and natural history, diagnosis, and treatments), this handy volume provides the latest indications regarding endoscopic approaches (first level and advanced endoscopy), pathological studies (pathology and molecular biology), and state-of-the-art therapeutic options (medical, endoscopic, and surgical) for BE. As such, it offers a valuable reference guide for all professionals involved in the management of BE (gastroenterologists, endoscopists, pathologists and surgeons), offering them a comprehensive overview and deeper understanding of this seemingly superficial disease. .Abdominal surgeryGastroenterology Surgical oncologyAbdominal Surgeryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H5901XGastroenterologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33061Surgical Oncologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H59150Abdominal surgery.Gastroenterology .Surgical oncology.Abdominal Surgery.Gastroenterology.Surgical Oncology.616.32Galloro Giuseppeedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910337483403321Revisiting Barrett's Esophagus1737439UNINA
