978-3-11-015343-9 (ISBN)
This book offers an interdisciplinary approach to five relevant clinical areas shared by neurology, gastroenterologie, urology, and other disciplines such as psychiatry, pediatrics and genetics: 1. Functional visceral disorders. 2. Visceral disorders of the degenrative nervous diseases. 3. Visceral disfunctions after spinal cord lesions. 4. Visceral disorders of the congenital nervous and neuromuscular diseases in children. 5. Gut-bladder interactions in orthotopic bladder and urinary diversions. The information, derived from several disciplines, converge on any single topic so to offer a comprehensive and integrated collection of data and concepts which can be usefully employed by the invertigators to envisage new research areas and by the clinicians to plan a holistic diagnostic approach and management of the patients.
